Good Luck Glacier!!!! From the Live-Aboard crew of the
Was onboard for DF 80. It was the year we lost the LCVP. Capt. Little was CO and we had a blast in Wellington. I would like to do it all over again.
ON board for 3 Operation Deepfreeze 63, 64 and 65. Worked in the Radio Shack and have many wonderful memories. Was on board the first time we took the ship right to the shoreline at McMurdo Sound. Will never ever forget a couple of trips between NZ and McMurdo. Best of luck and I will be getting involved in the project. TD
best of luck to the USCGC Glaicer and all who worked to restore he. Semper Paratus
I was a member of the first Coast Guard commissioning crew that boarded in Boston, MA. After a coat of white paint we headed for Long Beach, CA and Operation Deepfreeze '67. I still have and treasure all my patches, pictures and shellback certificates from the voyage. It's great to see that the Glacier is being restored.
I alwoys wondered what happened to the Glacier. I made two trips south and one north. Was onboard in 1975 when we broke two boades off the stbd propeller in Wddell Sea and almost had to winter over. Worked as MK3 in B-2 Engineroom... Those two years afforded a lifetime of experiences. What an adventure! Was onboard in 3@4 also went to greenland.I was onboard when it hit
a mountain on way back trom thule
Love the site, served aboard GLACIER for Deep Freeze "81" the year we lost our anchore at Fanning Island. On the first capstan on the bow thier is a gouge when the anchore chain broke free and whipped around, it was also the year that women were allowed on a cruise. I will always remember the Glacier she was my first assignment out of bootcamp. Thank you again
I served on the Glacier as third class HM 1959-1960. Great Site- good luck with it. Rode the Glacier on its first trip
to the Antarctic in 55. Was a member of Mobile Construction Battalion
Special, Advance Survey Party.Having served on DDs,DMS' and DE's they
were cruise liners when compared with that rocking, rolling, "cork" called
the Glacier ! Was an exciting ship to be on, sure got your "sea legs"
fast. I contend it rocked and rolled as we passed thru the P Canal !.
I left the Glacier at Little America 5 in late Dec 55 and wintered 56
at LA 5. That was a good crew on the lst Ant cruise and they treated us
CBs royally.
