C. ATTENTION~ P-cuJect Coordination Committee a. All ,,:,cr1c of the Technical Branch was brought to an abrupt ha.1t on 23 Decamocr :.947 when the project was notified that San Jc~F. Island would ~avc to be evacuated immediately due to the failure of the United States arm Panamanian Governments to agree to a renewal of the lea.se. Betwee~ this date and the 28th day of January 1948, when the island was formally returned to the custody of the Panamanian Government, all efforts were directed toward the evacuation of the island. During this month temporary locations in the Canal Zone were found for the equipment and personnel. The move was completed and exploratory trips were made looking for a new horne for the project. b. From the evacuation date until early in May 1948 the technical activities of the project were concentrated in an area at the mouth of the Chagres River on the Fort Sherman Reservation, Canal Zone. All technical personnel were engaged in guarding and rehabilitating the toxic munitions transferred from San Jose Island. The main body of the San Jose Project troops and the San Jose Project Headquarters were during this time located at Fort Clayton, Canal Zone. The on:y test carried on was the Surveillance Test for Bomb, Particulate, 4-1b_ i , . E-1 for Camp Detrick. This is the subject of Report No. 132 listed in paragraph two below. . c.· In the latter part' of the stay in the Canal Zone all energies were directed toward the move to the project's present home on St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. The work of evacuating i'rom San Jose Island to the Canal Zone and the reShipping from the Canal Zone to the Virgin Islands was performed by personnel of the project. rONF \ :12'1.1".,.N:- 'IrIor .... -,' ........ '\ • (SJPFR No. 61) d. A small advance party was dispatched to the Virgin Islands on 30 March 1948 and was followed by a larger party on 14 April 1948. The mission of these parties was to make the new station habitable" for the main bedy. The greater portion of the equipment of San Jose Project arrived at St. Thomas aboard the Colonel William J. O'Brien on 4 May 1948. Personnel, military, civilian and dependents was airlifted from Panama to Virgin Islai~ ~ in small implements. The toxic chemicals were towed over on two i'ive hundred ton ocean-going barges arriving at St. Thomas on 21 May 1948. The explosives were brought over in the hold of an FS boat arriving on 27 May 1948 and completing tte movement from the Canal Zone. e. San Jose Project moved into a former U. S. Navy Sub- marine Base just wes~ of the tovm of Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas. There there wer·; barracks, administration buildings, and shops adequate for th~- 'J <1 post. However, as shculd be apparent there were no techni~3.1 1aci1i ties of the ~c:uliar nature needod by the San Jose Project. The Technical Branch has spent nearly all it's energies since that time inventorying and rehabilitating it1s equipment ~nn preparing and pl~nning for further operations. The requireme:l;~F1 for techhl.cal facilities of the project have been submitte1 ~~U are under consideration by the higher echelons of the Department of the Army. Since this project has been transferred to St. Thomas an area of over 2,000 acres comprising the western_ tip of St. Thomas has been taken over for test areas. The only other test areas are .located on Water Island, a small island just across the channel from the main post~ Water Island is also the site of the Toxic Storage Yard. f. A small temporary laboratory has been fitted out, a. battery-charging room has been improvised and operations by- means ~-_-­ of temporary expedients will be undertaken shortly. A program of tests has been r0~~~:r-ed containing fifty-five tests. Tests for outside agencies arB-also being run. 2 • STATUS OF REPORTS a.

Results cf these and subsequent samplings appear below. On the following bombs, the valve was clogged to the extent that no samples could be obtained and no pressure recorded: Lot Number 183 183 '183 222 Bomb Number 14- 7 17 15 Date Filled Aug-44 Aug-44 Aug-44 Sept-44 The valves in the above bombs were changed and a s~ple was ob- tained from Bomb #15, Lot Ho. 222, the results being shown in the table which follows. However, still no sample or redordable pressure could be obtained from Bombs 14, 7, and 17, Lot No. 183. Tapping these bombs in- dicated that the contents were largely solids.

SUPPLY Great strides ha'!e been made in speeding up the supply of impregnated clothing a=: J:'3quired by the San Jose Project with the institution of new sU::9::'~~ channels for this particular item. It has been the policy to uti:._~l·~~ impregnated clothing in lieu of impermeable sui ts wherever possible .i'..le to the discomfort caused by the latter i tern. Up to the presen'~ time the necessity for order~lns impregnated clothing from the Zone cf Interior has on OCCasion c3i,;:ed undue delay in the conduct of tests. An impregnating plant has n~I~; been established in Panama with the exp:':'E.s"3 purpose of supplying this c: :)thing to the Antilles Command~ :t.::'.:: jlOW possible for the San Jos!-> .?!-oject to order clothing from thif' ?J.a~lt 'through agencies in Puerto Ri.:.':) thereby ex- . pediting continuo'.lJ ~'.l~p:y and removing the possibili"~:J' of future delays in test worle due to la'~k of imprognated clothing. Tha first such ship- ment-of clothin~ is expec~ed on or about 3 December 1149. The Chemical Officer of the Antilles has been extremely cooperative in instituting this new channel of supply. 6. INSTRUMENT ro;FAm With the arrival of an Instrument Repairman for permanent duty with the San Jose Project, the setting up of an instruncnt repair section has been instituted.' This new section should aid greatly in maintenance and repair of such field equipment as total dosage pumps, \ -rotary samplers, sampling apparatus, racks, etc • . 7. CHANGE HOUSE Work is nearing completion on the remodeling of the change· house on Water Island. The new arran~ement will contribute much to the safety in dressing and undressing of persormel working in 'or around contaminated areas. (SJPPR No. 74) 8. PERSONNEL a. ~~jor Arnold C.

Colored 16 nun. movies were taken of this phase vf operation. (4) Cloth streamers we~e tied to trees and bushes in such a way so that they did not become fouled on them to aid in observing wind currents in the shelter area. c. Tests with phosgene: (1) The test, as n whole was run be~veen 17 May and 30 September 1~49. Over a period of two daysl the agent CG was ~eleased from five one-ton containers '. _placed upwind from the shelter. at a distance of approximately 45 feet. Over another two-day period, the agent CG we,s released from twelve one-ton con- tainers placed upwind from the shelter at a'distance of approximately 150 feet. (a) Phosgene was'released from a sariesof upwind soUrces to obtain an even .concentration on all entrances to the gasproofshe1t~r.The flow of phosgene was regulated by needle valves and manometers. Sampling positi~ns were placed at the following locations: Two (2) bubblers operated by .total dosage pumps .and. rotary samplers in each of four (4) gas locks: two (2) bubblers , - operated by total dosage pumps. and rotary samplers : in the center of the protective sh~lter; two (2)- 'f"' . , " . , . bubblers operated as above on top of the shelter; ~;'.:-., c .~ .' two ,(2) bubblers operated as above two feet out- .02 y' .

Its purpose was to determine by field tests the best location, with respect to wind, for entrances to gasproof shelters constructed in a building located in accordance with the upper diagram, Figure 4, TM 3-350, marked "BAD". A shelter IOxlOxst feet was constructed for use in the test and results obtained with the sheltor on a downgrade as well as an up- grade slope with respect to the source. Throughout the test, the source of agent consiste(l of several one-ton containers of phosgene placed about the shelter. Results of the v~rious o~rations shrn1ed the downwind side of the shelter to be the most desirable, with side entrances next and u~ind last. Results obtained at the side entrances more closely approxima·~ed those at the d~~ind ontrance with upwind samplers giving consistently high readings. . ; I:. - ... ," . --...... ;.-~ , ~~~ .. , . . , ...... - • ..-. ..... ..- --.>. ---~ ~--' ....

Although it was observed that convection currents existed and tended to hold gas around the downwind side of the shelter, bubbler results for the most part were lower, both inside and outside the downwind entrances. Tests indicated that the side entrances were more desirable,than the upwind entrance and more closely approximated the .downwind entra~ce insofar as bu~bler results are conc~rned.

AUTHORITY: Test No. 136 of the approve~ p~ogram for San Jose Project dated 23 July 1948. '2. OBJECT: To check representativeness of metevrulogical and terrain conditions and to p!"ovide common bas'is for cOllpari..:;on of test; run at St. Thomas with. those run at other proving ~~unds. 3. REFERENCEe AND HISTORY; No previous test of lID filled M70 bombs has been run at St. Thomas. 4. SPECIAL CONDITIONS: a. The test was run in eight phases under the following conditions: (1) Phases 1 and 2, open area with otf-shore wind. J (2) Phases 3 and 4, wooded area with on"-shore wind. (3) Phases 5 and 6, wooded area with onshore wind. 14) Phases 7 and 8, o~n area with onshore wind. 5. PRmEDURE: a. Phases 1 and 2. In Phase 1 a single M70 bomb, HD filled, dyed 0.50% Dupont oil yellow was emplaced. vertically, tail down and fired statically in an open area ,with an off-shore wind on Water Island. ' The area used was Area 114 on Plan of Test sketch. Phase 2 was a duplicate except that the bomb was :tired nose down. b. Phases:3 and 4. , In Phases 3 and 4, a 8.ingle M70 bomb, HD f'Uled, dyed O.5a.£ Dupont oil yellow was emplaced vertically nose down and fired statically in a wooded area with an off-shore wind on Water Island.
