Description

Don Bell reports about rehearsals for the first atomic bomb test at Bikini Atoll. He relays comments by General William E. Kepner before giving a general round-up of the preparations. He calls the operations "an excellent show."

There are two cuts on the original disc. The first one was crossed out with wax markings, and thus has extra poor quality in part 1.
