The reduction of Holmes & Narver personnel prior to M -1 Day to 800 on
Eniwetok Atoll was accomplished on the premise that a total of 1,100 men (800
Holmes & Narver and 300 Task Force) would re-enter the Atoll after the MIKE
Shot. However, after re-entry was completed a peak population of 1,325 men
was reached, It was therefore necessary to resort to overtime work hours for
camp personnel to properly support this increased population,
Normal intra-atoll aircraft service was established and continued until

the end of the working day of K -4 Day. From that date through K -1 Day, all
air lift requirements were scheduled by the J-3 Section of Task Group 132.1

established to meet the need of the various agencies involved in this phase of
