'Approximately 11,000 scientific and military personnel
participated in the entire test series. Approximately 7,700 Army
personnel and 1,300 Marines participated in the DESERT ROCK VI
exercises that included the Wasp, Moth, Tesla, Turk, Bee, ESS,
Apple-1, MET, and Apple-2 tests. The troops observed nuclear blasts
to familiarize themselves with weapons effects and battlefield
tactics. After observing a blast, they would tour a display area of
military equipment exposed to the blast. Both officers and enlisted
personnel practiced nuclear age battlefield tactics and combat
techniques.
In addition to studying the psychological effects of nuclear
weapons on ground soldiers, scientists and military leaders wanted
to learn the effects of the detonations on different types of
military equipment and structures. One test, Apple-2, involved a
specially constructed "Doom Town," complete with houses,
automobiles, paved streets, and mannequins. This village allowed
scientists to assess the effects of nuclear detonations on civilian
populations, products, and food supplies, and to evaluate Civil
Defense emergency preparedness plans.'
