Description
Summary:The objective of the compilation is to provide a ready reference for persons concerned with the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of equipment and facilities in the Antarctic. It is recognized that the information is historical and pertains to specific or limited sections of the South Polar area. The sources utilized in compiling this report are among the first documentations of large-scale construction and continuing naval shore-based operations in Antarctica. Although considerable irrelevant detail has been omitted, sufficient background information is retained to orient the reader and engender a better understanding of the circumstances attendant to problems unique to the Antarctic. It is not intended that this report be narrative in format nor contain a chronology of Deep Freeze operations. (Author)
