Mobilization 157 commanded by Captain James T. Scullary, USA. Their mission was to construct concrete slabs for the buildings at Lojwa Base Camp.46 The date, 17 May 1977, marked anotherarrival at Enewetak Atoll. On Japtan Island, a baby boy was born, the greatgrandsonofIroij Johannes Peter. He was the first dri-Enewetak to be born on theatoll since the people were removed in 1947, These events and the status of mobilization efforts were reported in weekly situation reports (SITREPs) from the CJTG to Field Command. Field Command extracted the items of general interest and issued its own weekly SITREPto all activities concerned with the Enewetak Cleanup Project and Rehabilitation Program.47.48 LOJWA CAMP CONSTRUCTION: MAY-NOVEMBER 1977 During Congressional hearings, a Senate staff member had advised DNA that a recent study by the Army indicated that the military depots had on hand a numberof tents and prefabricated base camp components that could be used in the cleanup project to minimize costs of camp construction. Under the original concept in CONPLAN 1-76, the base camp at Lojwa was to employ these tents, prefabricated buildings, field kitchens, and latrines for approximately 400 troops. CONPLAN I-76 projected that it would take 2 months for construction of this prefab camp.49 After the CONPLANwasfinalized in September1976, the Services were contacted to determine actual availability of the base camp components, such as the Air Force special purpose portable kitchen and messhall. The Air Force advised Field Commandthat there were not enough complete, serviceable units on hand for the cleanup project. During the second Enewetak Planning Conference, it was learned that the prefabricated base camp componentswerenotin depotstocks, but consisted of drawings and bills of material. Additionally, the Army planners determined that tents would not besatisfactory for a 3-year project and that more comfortable and durable facilities would be required. They developed preliminary plans for a camp which would take a minimum of 7 months to construct, at an estimated cost of about $3.4 million. This was reduced by $500,000 when the Army wasable to provide a powerplant from their Nontactical Power Generation Program. The design and construction of the camp was a joint effort by 84th Engineer Battalion personnel in Hawaii and H&N, based on a Field Command-USASCH memorandum of agreementdated 7 March 1977. At the first design conference on 19 March 1977, it was agreed that the battalion would construct all general purpose buildings on Lojwa, provide
