The bearer of this card witnessed the detonations of only the fourth and fifth atomic bombs in history at the Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands, per his participation in Operation Crossroads, in July of 1946. The first detonation of a nuclear device was the Trinity test of July 16, 1945, followed less than a month later by the bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The U.S.S. Haven was a hospital ship of the U.S. Navy and was the lead ship for medical experiments in the Atoll during the course of the atomic tests.
