	Operation Dominic I and II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Operation Dominic I and II was a series of 105 nuclear test explosions conducted in 1962 and 1963 by the United States.
		Those conducted in the Pacific are sometimes called Dominic I. The blasts in Nevada are known as Dominic II.
		Operation Dominic occurred during a period of high Cold War tension between the United States and the Soviet Union; the Bay of Pigs Invasion had occurred not long before.

		Frigate Bird - on May 6, 1962, a UGM-27 Polaris A-1 missile with a live 600 kt W47 warhead was launched from the USS Ethan Allen (SSBN-608), it flew 1900 km, re-entered the atmosphere, and detonated at an altitude of 3.4 km over the South Pacific; part of Operation Dominic I.
		Planned as a method to dispel doubts about whether the USA's nuclear missiles would actually function in practice, it had less effect than was hoped, as the stockpile warhead was substantially modified prior to testing, and the missile tested was a relatively low-flying SLBM and not a high-flying ICBM.
		Both were part of Operation Hardtack and had a yield of 3.75 Mt On July 9, 1962, Thor missile 195 launched a Mk4 reentry vehicle containing a W49 thermonuclear warhead to an altitude of 248 miles (400 km).

	U.S. NUCLEAR TESTING FROM PROJECT TRINITY TO THE PLOWSHARE PROGRAM
		Among the other activities, the operational helicopter tests performed by the Marine Corps were designed to investigate the capability of helicopters and their crews to withstand a nuclear burst and its effects (11: 1).
		Operation DOMINIC I was conducted with four primary objectives: to develop nuclear weapons (the 29 airdrops); to study the effects of nuclear detonations (the five high-altitude bursts); to test the Polaris weapon system (the FRIGATE BIRD event); and to test the Navy nuclear antisubmarine rocket (Shot SWORDFISH) (23: 1).
		Operation DOMINIC II was conducted during the period of Operation STORAX but was not a part of STORAX (24: 19,20).

	Introduction
		Similarly, the 1962 test operation in the Pacific were called Operation Dominic and the smaller NTS operations were called Operation Sunbeam and Operation Dominic II.
		Within each operation, a number of effects programs might be defined, with each programs identifying a technical area of interest, such as blast effects, thermal effects, aircraft structure effects, etc. Within each program, a number of projects would be performed in support of the program.
		Each successive test operation was assigned a block of 100 or 200 WT numbers that the projects within the formal test organization used for reporting.

	OPERATION DOMINIC - 1962
		Conducted as part of Operation Dominic was a series of high altitude tests known as Operation Fishbowl.
		Due in part to its somewhat higher yield, the W-56 was selected for use on the follow-on Minuteman II so the W-59 was retired from service with the Minuteman I system; all were retired between December 1964 and June 1969.
		This LRL airdrop was the final nuclear weapon airdrop by the U.S. The device tested was a Ripple II in a Mk-36 drop case, and it was delivered with near-perfect accuracy (bombing error less than 100 feet).

		CONTENTIONS The appellant contends, in substance, that the veteran was exposed to ionizing radiation by participation in atmospheric nuclear testing at Operations DOMINIC I and/or DOMINIC II and died from a radiogenic and "radiopresumptive" disease, pancreatic cancer.
		If the veteran were to have participated, as claimed, in the atmospheric nuclear tests of Operation DOMINIC I and/or Operation DOMINIC II, service connection for the cause of death as due to/related to such participation would be in order.
		While the appellant claims such exposure based on her recall of his statement that he was aboard ship and witnessed an explosion from atmospheric nuclear testing, there is no probative evidence that he was subjected to such exposure or otherwise was a participant in any radiation risk activity.

		THERE was a devout woman of Segovia at whose house St Dominic used occasionally to lodge, and in which he once left behind a tunic of sackcloth which he had worn till a short time before this, when he had changed it for a very painful hair shirt.
		COMING once to Chatillon(13) on one of his many journeys through France, it chanced that the infant son of his hostess (the sister of the parish priest of the town) had but a little while before fallen from a terrace, and his parents were lamenting his death.
		A BROTHER Of over sixty years of age whom St Dominic had long before received into the Order in the convent of Limoges, after suffering from a painful eruption for some years, came to hear of the miracles which were wrought at the tomb of the saint previous to his canonisation.

		The Polaris system underwent a significant, British designed, life extension programme called Chevaline, which while reducing the total number of warheads available added various defensive measures.
