roLoen PALI,

Dear Don:

The letters have been sent out to recall all the thyroid pathology

specimmne.

In respect to your part of the 26 Year Report:
On page 5, line 6, the phrase “test group" confuses me.

Do you

mean medical group that I took out or do you maan the Joint Task Force 77
The latter was certainly capable of extensive dosimetry and making radiochemical meansurements. Whether they did it I do not know.
On page 5, line 13, the word "isopleths” is a new one to me.

Best personal regards,
Sincerely,

Eugene P, Cronkite, M.D.
