The success of the oceanographic surveys is attributable
to the
support and cooperation of many organizations and indi-
viduals.
This cooperation was es ,ecially evident in both the
Walton and Marsh surveys during and following Operation Redwing.
The Division of Blology and Medicine, of the 9. S. Atomic
Energy Commission, particularly Dr. W. R. Boss, helped greatly
in the planning and coordination of the program.
Units of Joint Task Force Seven, especially Task Group 7.3
(Navy), were particularly helpful.
The Atomic Energy Commission Resident Engineer, Mr. Thomas
Hard: son, and members of his staff provided invaluable support
during and following the surveys.
The Navy can well be proud of the work of Commander Wilfred
G. Chartier, Captain of the USS Marsh, and of the officers and
crew who made possible the radiobiological-oceanographical survey from a ship not designed for such work.
