Walter Goodman Signed Manhattan Project Military Education Record BAS D87849
Item Description
Offered is an exceptional first-generation copy of an original World War II military education and separation record for Manhattan Project veteran Walter Goodman, subsequently personally hand-signed by Walter Goodman.
The document provides a fascinating look at Goodman's extensive technical and engineering education during World War II, including training at Fort Monmouth, Princeton University, and Rutgers University.
Among the military education recorded on the document are:
Fort Monmouth, New Jersey - Radio Operator - 8 Weeks
ASTP, Princeton University - Basic Engineering - 9 Months
ASTP, Rutgers University - Advanced Electrical Engineering - 12 Months
Goodman's civilian educational background is also documented, including attendance at the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute and studies in Mechanical Engineering.
The combination of Goodman's extensive technical education, his later involvement with the Manhattan Engineering District, his prominent handwritten signature, and Beckett Authentication Services authentication makes this an outstanding piece of World War II, Manhattan Project, and scientific history.
Please note that the underlying document is a first-generation copy of the original wartime record and is not being represented as the original World War II document. Walter Goodman subsequently hand-signed this first-generation copy.
Please review all photographs carefully as they are considered part of the item description.

About the Document
This military record provides an unusually detailed look at the technical education received by Walter Goodman during World War II.
His military education includes eight weeks of Radio Operator training at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, followed by substantial engineering studies through the Army Specialized Training Program (ASTP).
The document records:
• ASTP - Princeton University - Basic Engineering - 9 Months
• ASTP - Rutgers University - Advanced Electrical Engineering - 12 Months
The civilian education section identifies Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute in Brooklyn, New York, and lists Goodman's major course of study as Mechanical Engineering.
Taken together, these entries illustrate the extensive technical and engineering background Goodman possessed during his wartime service.
Goodman subsequently added his large blue-ink signature prominently near the bottom of this first-generation copy.
About Walter Goodman
Walter Goodman served during World War II and was assigned to the Manhattan Engineering District, the U.S. Army organization responsible for administering the Manhattan Project.
Goodman's wartime records identify his work as an engineering aide involved with the development and construction of the atomic bomb.
His technical background is particularly interesting when viewed alongside the education documented on this piece.
Training in radio operation, basic engineering, advanced electrical engineering, and mechanical engineeringprovides valuable context for the technical foundation that preceded his wartime work.
For collectors of Manhattan Project history, documents such as this help tell the broader story of the scientists, engineers, technicians, and military personnel whose specialized skills contributed to the enormous wartime undertaking.
About the Manhattan Project
The Manhattan Project was the secret Allied program responsible for developing the world's first atomic weapons during World War II.
Administered by the U.S. Army's Manhattan Engineer District, the project brought together an extraordinary concentration of scientists, engineers, technicians, military personnel, and industrial organizations.
Major facilities and operations were established at locations including Los Alamos, New Mexico; Oak Ridge, Tennessee; and Hanford, Washington.
The project culminated in the Trinity Test on July 16, 1945, followed by the atomic bombing missions against Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.
Material associated with individual Manhattan Project personnel provides collectors with tangible connections to the people whose technical expertise contributed to one of the most consequential scientific and military programs in history.
Why This Piece Is Special
This piece combines several desirable areas of World War II and Manhattan Project collecting:
• Walter Goodman autograph
• Manhattan Engineering District veteran
• Princeton University engineering training
• Rutgers University advanced electrical engineering training
• Fort Monmouth radio operator training
• Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute
• Mechanical engineering background
• World War II military education
• First-generation copy of Goodman's military record
• Beckett Authentication Services authentication
Rather than signing an unrelated photograph or modern commemorative item, Goodman personally signed a first-generation copy of his own World War II military record.
The document's detailed account of his technical and engineering education provides particularly interesting context when viewed alongside his subsequent work with the Manhattan Engineering District.
Collecting Manhattan Project Memorabilia
Material associated with the Manhattan Project represents one of the most historically significant areas of World War II collecting.
Collectors frequently pursue material connected with:
• Manhattan Project veterans
• Manhattan Engineer District
• Los Alamos
• Oak Ridge
• Hanford
• Trinity Test
• Hiroshima
• Nagasaki
• Scientists and engineers
• Technical and military personnel
• Signed wartime documents
• Military service and education records
Signed military records are particularly compelling because they document the individual backgrounds and experiences of people connected with the project rather than simply commemorating the events decades later.
Display Appeal
This piece offers excellent display appeal.
The document's prominent Military Education section, references to Fort Monmouth, Princeton University, Rutgers University, Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, and Mechanical Engineering, together with Goodman's large blue-ink signature, create an attractive and historically informative display.
It would make an outstanding addition to a collection focused on the Manhattan Project, Manhattan Engineering District, World War II scientific history, military engineering, or authenticated veteran autographs.
