The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Herman Heinrich. Heinrich joined the Navy and was assigned to the USS South Dakota (BB-57) in August 1943. He worked in the lower handling room for the five-inch guns and felt only a shudder when the South Dakota was struck by a bomb at the Battle of the Philippine Sea. Heading toward Okinawa, he recalls an American observation plane being accidentally struck by a projectile from his ship. At Okinawa he witnessed the damage that the destroyers sustained from kamikaze attacks as his ship brought casualties aboard. At Tokyo Bay, his crew shared Admiral Halsey’s disappointment that the surrender ceremony would not be held on the South Dakota. He remembers Halsey as an easy-going leader who liked to mingle with the crew. Heinrich returned home and was discharged in February 1946.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an interview with Douglas Cloakey. Cloakey joined the Marine Corps in October of 1940. He served with the 1st Battalion, 6th Marines. In 1941, they traveled to Iceland where they supplemented British troops to defend against a German attack on the island. In the fall of 1942, Cloakey deployed to Samoa and was assigned to the 3rd Raider Battalion. He participated in the Solomon Islands Campaign in 1943, and shares anecdotes of him and his fellow servicemen.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Kenneth Olsen, J S Gray and Paul Spain. These men were prisoners of war on the Philippines and share anecdotes of their captivity. Olsen also tells stories from his time in captivity in Japan. Paul Spain shares a story about rescuing an American flag and keeping portions of it throughout his captivity. They also discuss their weight upon being liberated.

Transcript of an oral monologue with Hal Lamar. He reflects on Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz during his time serving as the Admiral's personal aide and secretary. He describes Nimitz's character and abilities as a leader. Lamar shares anecdotes about visiting wounded men and awarding Purple Heart medals, other officers coming to call, recreating, visiting Tarawa ,and activities at the new headquarters on Guam.

Handwritten notes and transcriptions of elicited sentences and noun phrases, a traditional narrative about building houses, and word lists including numerals 1-100, time, and pronouns.

Letter from Pedro J. Gonzalez to Claudio Estrada. A long, curving title is printed above small lines of text that are positioned above and beside a bird icon, below which is a printed date. Below the date is a wide column of text positioned to the right of a smaller text column. The wider text column continues across the back of the pages and onto a second paper, filling its front and half of its back. Beneath the end of the printed text are multiples lines of blue handwriting.

RESRAD is designed to derive site-specific guidelines for allowable residual concentrations of radionuclides in soil. A guideline is defined as a radionuclide concentration or a level of radiation or radioactivity that is acceptable if a site is to be used without radiological restrictions. Guidelines are expressed as (1) concentrations of residual radionuclides in soil, (2) concentrations of airborne radon decay products, (3) levels of external gamma radiation, (4) levels of radioactivity from surface contamination, and (5) concentrations of residual radionuclides in air and water. Soil is defined as unconsolidated earth material, including rubble and debris that may be present. The controlling principles of all guidelines are (1) the annual radiation dose received by a member of the critical population group from the residual radioactive material - predicted by a realistic but reasonably conservative analysis and averaged over a 50 year period - should not exceed 100 mrem/yr, and (2) doses should be kept as low as reasonably achievable. All significant exposure pathways for the critical population group are considered in deriving soil guidelines. These pathways include direct exposure to external radiation from the contaminated soil material; internal radiation from inhalation of airborne radionuclides; and internal radiation from ingestion of plant …

VERTPAK1 is a package of analytical solutions used in verification of numerical codes that simulate fluid flow, rock deformation, and solute transport in fractured and unfractured porous media. VERTPAK1 contains the following: BAREN, an analytical solution developed by Barenblatt, Zhelton and Kochina (1960) for describing transient flow to a well penetrating a (double porosity) confined aquifer; GIBMAC, an analytical solution developed by McNamee and Gibson (1960) for describing consolidation of a semi-infinite soil medium subject to a strip (plane strain) or cylindrical (axisymmetric) loading; GRINRH, an analytical solution developed by Gringarten (1971) for describing transient flow to a partially penetrating well in a confined aquifer containing a single horizontal fracture; GRINRV, an analytical solution developed by Gringarten, Ramey, and Raghavan (1974) for describing transient flow to a fully penetrating well in a confined aquifer containing a single vertical fracture; HART, an analytical solution given by Nowacki (1962) and implemented by HART (1981) for describing the elastic behavior of an infinite solid subject to a line heat source; LESTER, an analytical solution presented by Lester, Jansen, and Burkholder (1975) for describing one-dimensional transport of radionuclide chains through an adsorbing medium; STRELT, an analytical solution presented by Streltsova-Adams (1978) for describing transient …
