Oral History Interview with Jimmie Thomas, October 21, 2000
Transcript of an oral interview with Jimmie Thomas. Thomas was born in 1923 and went into the Navy after Pearl Harbor, entering the V-5 Program for Aviation Cadets. After going through flight training, he was assigned to PBYs. He then went to Camp Kearney in San Diego and was assigned to the PB4Y2. They flew to their squadron on Tinian which had an advance base on Iwo Jima. He flew from Iwo Jima to Japan two or three times a week, flying a search sector (up to Japan, down the coast for an hour, and then back to Iwo). Tokyo Rose called them the "Blue Raiders". Thomas was on one of these search missions when they heard that an 'atomic device' had been dropped on Hiroshima. They also flew air-sea rescue missions out of Iwo. He came back to the States and was assigned to Floyd Bennett Field as a BRF-1 ferry pilot. Thomas was discharged in the summer of 1946.

Oral History Interview with Loran F. Tom Twohig, October 21, 2000
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Loran F. Tom Twohig. Twohig grew up in Nebraska and enlisted in the Army when he turned 18. After training, he went to four small islands. Then he was part of invasions on two small islands and then went to Leyte. He worked primarily with explosives. After receiving a purple heart for his work Ormarch Beach at Leyte, he went to Australia and then returning to fighting. He received two more purple hearts, one for fighting at Okinawa. He was involved in ""mopping up"" the islands in the Philippines, landing at a total of 32 islands. He saw General MacArthur come ashore at Leyte. He mentions finding a stash of opium in a downed Japanese airplane and that the Japanese kamikazes especially used opium during the war. He was with the 78th Amphibious Battalion. Occasionally Twohig would ride on PT boats. He went to mass aboard the Navy ships when he could.

Accelerator system for neutron radiography
The field of x-ray radiography is well established for doing non-destructive evaluation of a vast array of components, assemblies, and objects. While x-rays excel in many radiography applications, their effectiveness diminishes rapidly if the objects of interest are surrounded by thick, high-density materials that strongly attenuate photons. Due to the differences in interaction mechanisms, neutron radiography is highly effective in imaging details inside such objects. To obtain a high intensity neutron source suitable for neutron imaging a 9-MeV linear accelerator is being evaluated for putting a deuteron beam into a high-pressure deuterium gas cell. As a windowless aperture is needed to transport the beam into the gas cell, a low-emittance is needed to minimize losses along the high-energy beam transport (HEBT) and the end station. A description of the HEBT, the transport optics into the gas cell, and the requirements for the linac will be presented.

Beam position monitor
An apparatus for determining the position of an x-ray beam relative to a desired beam axis where the apparatus is positioned along the beam path so that a thin metal foil target intersects the x-ray beam generating fluorescent radiation. A PIN diode array is positioned so that a portion of the fluorescent radiation is intercepted by the array resulting in a series of electrical signals from the PIN diodes making up the array. The signals are then analyzed and the position of the x-ray beam is determined relative to the desired beam path.
