What Caused The Somerton Man To Lose 18 Teeth?
This page is from a July 1947 issue of PIX magazine. The subject as you can see is Germ Warfare.
Here's the link to the full 32-page issue, it gives a unique insight into life in that era, sometimes amusing and sometimes deadly serious:
This post is part of a series that addresses the background facts of living in the 1940s especially as it applies to the various experiments that were taking place at that time.

What we now have is a far clearer picture of what went on and how they may have contributed to the finding of the body of a man on Somerton Beach.
There is another post on this subject in the next day or so, it provides documentary evidence of the planning that took place and which organisations were involved.
