Until the lcttcr mentioned in paragraph 1 was endorsed back
&this headquarters, this clemont had no r sponsibility toward obtaining ratiati:n readings at Rongerik though muck assistance was
given to all concorned in the planning of the visits, As a result
all readings of radiation have been sent to the radiological safety
people and to the medical officers in the various hexdquarters.
If
these readings are desired, they may be obtained from JTF SEVEN J-3.
6. Request relief from the instructions contained in 2nd Indorsement of the letter citcd in paragraph 1. It appears that the
WREP has been opereting undcr two sets of instructions. The instruc-
tions containcd in the cited letter have been fulfilled substantially
by the destroyer survey party with additional information obtaine® or
subsequent amphibious aircraft trips. The trips to Rongerik are bing
performed in a very excellent manner under the working agrcoment sub-
mitted as inclosure #1.
To change the present working arrangement
would only lead to confusion.
