many, they worked at los alamos, UC Berkeley, Chicago, hanford, oak ridge, New York City, wendover; it was the highest priority war project and identifying yourself with its secret priority code word "silverplate" got you anything instantly even if many others doing other things had been waiting weeks for the same thing because of shortages.

Richard Feynman even got a General that had already boarded a train kicked off so he could get to a meeting on time using "silverplate". The General's priority was not as high as "silverplate".
