The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from U. S. Project Trinity Report by Carl Maag and Steve Rohrer: The Site and Offsite Monitoring Groups were both part of the Medical
Group. The Site Monitoring Group was responsible for equipping
personnel with protective clothing and instruments to measure
radiation exposure, monitoring and recording personnel exposure
according to film badge readings and time spent in the test area, and
providing for personnel decontamination. The Offsite Monitoring Group
surveyed areas surrounding the test site for radioactive fallout. In
addition to these two monitoring groups, a small group of medical
technicians provided radiation detection instruments and monitoring.
