520    In 1946, approximately 40,000 U.S. military personnel 
       participated in Operation CROSSROADS, an atmospheric 
       nuclear test that took place at Bikini Atoll in the 
       Marshall Islands. Congress passed a law directing the 
       Veterans Administration to determine whether there were 
       any long-term adverse health effects associated with 
       exposure to ionizing radiation from the detonation of 
       nuclear devices. This book contains the results of an 
       extensive epidemiological study of the mortality of 
       participants compared with a similar group of 
       nonparticipants. Topics of discussion include a breakdown 
       of the study rationale; an overview of other studies of 
       veteran participants in nuclear tests; and descriptions of
       Operation CROSSROADS, data sources for the study, 
       participant and comparison cohorts, exposure details, 
       mortality ascertainment, and findings and conclusions.
