We now have 9,000 profiles of Manhattan Project veterans on our website. While some of these only have minimal information – their name, their position, and the Manhattan Project site they worked at – many others have more complete profiles, with photographs and documents. You can filter by site and role. For example, you can now find most of the members of the Los Alamos Special Engineer Detachment, the Military Police, and the Provisional Engineer Detachment.
We are continuing to add many more profiles, photographs, and documents. We encourage family members of Manhattan Project veterans to send us biographical information and photographs so we can add more profiles to the site.
While still only a small fraction of the 600,000 peoplewho worked on the Manhattan Project, the database is by far the most complete list of Manhattan Project workers online.
Many thanks to our staff for their hard work adding profiles to the website and editing dozens of oral histories. Special commendation to research assistants Caitlyn Borgi, Ruthie Dannehy, Anna Frenzilli, Emma Schaff, and Reed Srere for an excellent job.
