William Bunnell Collection

Los Alamos Security Guards

 was a security guard at Los Alamos from late 1946 until late 1947.  Although he completed a three month stint with the military police at Los Alamos, his main duty as a security guard was safe-guarding bomb material anytime it was out of the vault.  Mr. Porterie, who presently resides in Arizona, graciously provided the photos below.
