TEMPLATE, Los Alamos Dentist

US ARMY, LOS ALAMOS DENTIST

Nathan Peretzman, aka: Nathan Perry, aka: Crumbo, Worked on the Alaskan Highway, graduated Tufts Dental School and was assigned to the Los Alamos National Laboratory during the development of the Atomic Bomb. I bought some of his estate. He last enjoyed a dental practice on Mass. Ave, Cambridge, MA. THe images I post below are in a nearly chronological order.
