I never got a real explanation of why he was there, he was also at the Bikini Atoll bomb tests “Operation Crossroads”. He was in the Navy at the time, and had a lot of technical training. I suspect he was involved in measuring and recording the effects of the bombs. It was likely all Top Secret stuff, and he was of the generation that unless told otherwise the secrets were carried to the grave. I only discovered he was at Operation Crossroads after he passed away, and found some of his Navy records.
Interesting.
