because of low radioactivity and absence of contamination,
One monitor
was posted at the personnel landing during the working day and parties
were briefed as they came ashore and checked for contamination prior to
leaving the island,
A °"-s
line was established beyond which
workers and those on routine missions were not permitted to go without
monitors.
Two monitors acted as a roving detail.
Film badges, pocket
dosimeters and party ‘monitors-wereprovided for. those who had to go
beyond this line.
On X-plus-8, Major SEUSRENwB, USMC, of AFSIP joined the
Task Group.
YOKE Test,
Freparations for YOKE day were carried out with greater precision
than was demonstrated for the X-RAY shot.
By this time all personnel
concerned had a much better understanding of the problems involved and
practical experience in meeting them.
Since the basic plan for YOKE operations followed the same pattern
of X-RAY, RadSafe activities became virtually a. repetition of those
accomplished for the initial test.
The major difference was in the
technical measurements which were varied to conform to a different
outlay of test structures.
The schedule of missions for YOKE conformed to the same type and
procedure as for X-RAY, but wherever practical, personnel were
reassigned from one group to another in order that they might gain
broad experience in various field radiological problems.
