The purpose of the Big Jack, Phase A test was to measure penetration of a jungle canopy bybiological and chemical agent simulants disseminated from an operational weapon system.

The purpose of the Big Jack, Phase B test was to obtain information on the degree of penetration of jungle canopy by a chemical warfare agent simulant disseminated from an operational type weapon system.

The purposes of Red Oak, Phase I were to determine the height-of-burst distributions of the 121A1 (155mm) chemical projectiles and the M55 (115mm) rocket warheads when fired into a jungle environment, and to determine the effects of fragmentation from bursting chemical munitions.

The purposes of Pin Point were to evaluate the riot-control-agent CS-dispensing, man- portable E8 launcher and the aerially-delivered CBU-19/A and CBU-30/A munitions for area-coverage-time-dosage relationships in a tropical jungle environment.

The objective of Swamp Oak was to determine area-time-dosage relationships as a function of burst height and agent diffusion characteristics, within subarctic forested areas, for Sarin nerve agent-filled artillery munitions in temperatures ranging from -1ºC to -18ºC.

The purpose of Big Tom was to evaluate the feasibility of a biological attack against an island complex and to evaluate doctrine and tactics for delivery of such an attack.

The purpose of Dew Point was to determine the effectiveness of Sarin nerve agent-filled BLU-19/B23 bomblets ejected from an SUU-13/A dispenser, and M139 bomblets dropped from a SADEYE dispenser in a temperate summer forest environment.

The primary purpose of DTC Test 69-31 was to evaluate the continued effectiveness of the Shipboard Toxicological Operational Protection System (STOPS) of the USS Herbert J. Thomas (DD-833).

The purposes of Pine Ridge were to ascertain the percentage of BLU-19/B23 and BLU-20/B23 bomblets that function and to determine their dissemination points in or below a jungle canopy; to determine area-time-dosage and diffusion characteristics of agent BZ and Sarin nerve agent when disseminated from single bomblets; and, to estimate the effective ...

The main purpose of Red Cloud was to obtain biological decay rate and animal infectivity data on aerosols of Francisella tularensis (wet and dry forms) disseminated in a frigid field environment.

Whistle Down was primarily an investigation of the existence, nature, and extent of the hazard from Sarin nerve agent and VX nerve agent on environmental clothing, snow, and frozen ground.

The main purpose of Watch Dog was to obtain viability decay rates of Francisella tularensis (wet and dry forms), Serratia marcesens, and Escherichia coli. and stabilized Francisella tularensis animal infectivity data in a summer temperate environment.

The purpose of DTC Test 70-73 was to examine potential secondary aerosol hazards to friendly troops following a biological agent attack.

In DTC Test 69-10, units of a US Marine Corps Ready Group were subjected to a simulated chemical agent spray attack while engaged in an amphibious assault.

The purpose of West Side, Phase II was to evaluate the area coverage capabilities of the A/B 45-Y-4/F-105 powdered agent dissemination system as used operationally over a northern open plains region during cold weather.
