The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Jack Fletcher. Fletcher was born in Spur, Texas 21 September 1925. Joining the Navy in 1942 he went to California for boot training. Selected to be a hospital apprentice he was sent to Pensacola, Florida. While there he volunteered for duty with the Fleet Marine Force. He was sent to Camp Elliott, California and after receiving combat training he was placed into the 34th Replacement Battalion and ultimately assigned to the 3rd Marine Division, 3rd Marines, 1st Battalion. After training on Guadalcanal, the division participated in the invasion of Guam in July 1944. As he had been transferred to the headquarters company, Fletcher did not participate in the landing. He shares the guilt of a survivor for many corpsmen were killed or wounded. He recalls a personal encounter he had with Admiral Halsey and the penalty he was given for his inability to cite his rifle’s serial number.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has been tasked with evaluating the effectiveness of ORNL’s new hybrid transport code, ADVANTG, on scenarios of interest to our NA-22 sponsor, specifically of detection of diversion of special nuclear material (SNM). PNNL staff have determined that acquisition and installation of ADVANTG was relatively straightforward for a code in its phase of development, but probably not yet sufficient for mass distribution to the general user. PNNL staff also determined that with little effort, ADVANTG generated weight windows that typically worked for the problems and generated results consistent with MCNP. With slightly greater effort of choosing a finer mesh around detectors or sample reaction tally regions, the figure of merit (FOM) could be further improved in most cases. This does take some limited knowledge of deterministic transport methods. The FOM could also be increased by limiting the energy range for a tally to the energy region of greatest interest. It was then found that an MCNP run with the full energy range for the tally showed improved statistics in the region used for the ADVANTG run. The specific case of interest chosen by the sponsor is the CIPN project from Las Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), which …
