OPERATION CROSSROADS. SHIP PREPARATION AND TARGET INSPECTION. PART VI. PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORD.

Abstract

The purpose of this photographic record is to present visually the damage to electronic equipment from each test and to illustrate conditions described and analyzed in the report. Photographs of selected electronic equipment installations aboard the target vessels were taken before Test ABLE, but only these which best illustrate comparisons of pre and post test conditions of units were chosen for this record. Post test photographs were taken only where damage was incurred. Where there was repetition, representative photographs were chosen to show typical damage. Additional photographs are included in the supporting files. All pictures are mounted with short dimention across the page to allow maximum enlargement. Bottom of picture is either at bottom of page or along right margin. Approximate ranges and bearings from the explosion are indicated for each ship. (Author)
