Nuclear Test

Participants

Sought

Foi more than a year the Department of Defense has been attempting to identify former military and civilian Defense personnel who participated in the atmospheric nuclear tests conducted from 1945 to 1962. The Defense Nuclear Agency is the Executive Agent for this program.

Anyone who participated in these tests, which were held largely in Nevada and at Bikini and Enewetak atolls in the Pacific, is urged to contact the Defense Nuclear Agency by calling toll free 800-572-6845.

The Defense Nuclear Agency is attempting to reconstruct a complete history of the atmospheric nuclear test program, including names of participants and any radiation doses they received.

One of the purposes of this effort is to enable the National Academy of Sciences and other scientific organizations to determine if there' are health hazards resulting from participation in the tests.
