Dear Dr. Bugher:
This is in response to your very fine letter of 8 December
concerning the effective work of members of our Institute
in collaboration with others during the recent field tests in
Nevadae Your laudatory comments have been very mech
appreciated by all of our staff who are concerned with such
matters. JI shall make it a point to see that your letter is
made a part of Cdr. Cronkite's official file.
With regard to the participation of Cdr. Cronkite in the
forthcoming conferences, I have just been informed that this
matter has the approval of the Surgeon General and that you
will soon be so informed if the commnication has not already
come to your hand. Needless to say, we are happy to have
Cdr. Cronkite participate in these important conferences and
consider that both he and the Institute are honored thereby.
