Marines Get
Atomic Taste
LAS VEGAS, Nev. Two Ma
rine Corps battalions got their first
taste of atomic fire Thursday from
a brilliant A-bomb bursting low
over Yucca Flat.
The bomb produced the most sus
tained fire ball seen by observers
In a Nevada daylight explosion
somewhere from 10 to 12 seconds.
The explosion, however, ap
peared to be unusually concentrat
ed and did not produce 'a cloud
as spectacular or high as several
previous blasts.
The 2.150 Marines, dug in in fox
holes and trenches less than lour
miles from Ground Zero the tar
itet area, came through their test
uninjured, preliminary reports in
dicated.
The bomb was detonated about
2,000 feet above the flat.
It was released by an Air Force
B-50 from Kirtland Air Force Base,
Albuquerque. N.M., from an eleva
tion of perhaps 30.000 feet.
The Marines were in the same
positions, occupied by Army troops
last week, but with the burst some
1.500 feet lower they undoubtedly
felt more heat.
They also received a good Jolt.
Observers on Mt. Charleston, 50
miles away, received a sound wave
and an ecno minutes auer ure
blast, but no perceptible shock.
The impact of the bonm on
Ground Zero raised, a dust column
which joined the nuclear cioua
within 30 seconds in sharp con
trast to last week's high level de
tonation where the cloud bung iso
lated for minutes.
