1500 American Troops Awaiting
Today's A-Blast at Desert Camp
Yucca Flat, Nev. (U.R) Fif
teen hundred hardy young Amer
icans at Camp Desert Rock, in
a bleak and windswept valley 20
miles distant, prepared Monday
to move into the foxholes of
Yucca Flat.
There they will be in closer
proximity to Tuesday's atomic
bomb blast than any troops have
ever been, since Hiroshima and
Nagasaki.
With them were 120 para
troopers who, after exposure to
the great blast officially la
belled as "equal to 100 suns,"
would then board troop carrying
airplanes and be dropped just
beyond the blasted area called
"Ground Zero."
Closest to A-Blast.
The test will put American
foot soldiers the closest they
have ever been to an A-blast
a distance of about seven miles.
And also for the first time,
American TV viewers will get
their first look at a "live" atomic
explosion actually going off.
Meantime, scientists young and
old, some of them sedately at
tired but most of them young,
hatless and wearing brightly col
ored sports shirts, completed
final installation of instruments
in towers 300 fct high above and
in bunkers far below the sage
covered floor of this high desert
valley.
Predict Clear Weather
The weather forecast, awaited
anxiously by the hundreds of
participants and observers, pre
dicted decreasing cloudiness dur
ing the day and clear weather
by Tuesday.
The bomb itself was believed
to be in readiness at Kirtland Air
Force base near Albuquerque.
N. M. The bomb may be carried
by a B-50 bomber.
Officers and troops at Camp
Desert Rock were in high spirits
and obviously relished the ven
ture facing them.
Purpose of the extraordinarily
close exposure of troops, in or
dinary foxholes four feet deep
without reinforcement, was two
fold, Storke said.
Objective Is Training
First objective is tactical train
ing so that, in the language of
the layman, an invading force
will be able to follow up swiftly
and with reasonable safety an
liuiiuc ounioing aiiacK upon
enemy sirongnoias.
These troops are to learn how
to invade an enemy military area
still stunned by the force of
atomic attack and to capture sur
viving personnel and objectives.
"From our experience here,"
Storke said, "we have learned
that the Army's tactical doctrine
is so sound as to require neither
basic change nor modification.
Same Tactics
"An assault supported by
atomic weapons, similar to the
test to be staged, will involve
the same general tactics as as
sault supported by conventional
high explosive shelling or aerial
bombardment."
Second objective is to analyze
the psychological reactions of the
participating troops, the general
said. Officers and men of the
combat team Were interviewed
by Army experts prior to their
arrival at Desert Rock. They
will be carefully checked while
the great strain of the experi
ment itself is under way, and
will be interviewed again after
they return to home stations.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN
1952 Seen as Year Of H-Bomb; Test Scheduled in Fall
nasmngion u.rj lnis ap
pears to be the year of the H-bomb.
Weaponeers are confident that
the country's first real H-bomb
test, planned for next fall at
Eniwetok, will be a success.
So far there have been no
public announcements about the
stage of H-bomb development.
But one atomic insider has told
the United Press;
"Bubbling Along"
"Things are bubbling along In
the whole area of H-bomb work.
The activity is intense, and
damned important things are
happening. The people should be
made aware that they are hap
pening." Other sources have said the
first test explosion of an H-bomb
will be held in September at the
atomic proving ground in the
Pacific.
It will be a tremendous explo
sion, if it works as well as in
formed sources believe it will. It
will be a "bang" far bigger
than the Atomic Energy Com
mission is willing to set off at
the continental proving ground
near Las Vegas, Nev.
Only relatively "small" atomic
explosions are permitted there.
The so-called "public" explosion
scheduled in Nevada Tuesday
will be of a "nominal" A-bomb
roughly comparable to those
detonated over Nagasaki in
World War II and at Bikini in
1946.
The first H-bomb will be a
souped up A-bomb whose ex
plosive power has been augment
ed by a kind of heavy hydrogen
which can be made to blow up
under the influence of atomic
heat.
For years now there has been
talk of a hydrogen "super bomb"
1,000 times more powerful than
a "nominal" A bomb.
To have a clean hankerchlef
in a hurry: Wash, rinse, and blot
in a towel. Pull the h e m
straight, square the corners, and
"paste" flat to dry against a tile
dall, mirror, or over the edge
of the bathtub.
