The Polar Star

Fall 2000 - I am working on the over 300 pictures I have yet to review. I should have an update soon. Please check back!

Welcome to my Antarctica trip web page. On Thursday, February 3, I set off for Antarctica with the Commandant of the Coast Guard, Admiral James Loy. It will take Admiral Loy and me four days to reach McMurdo Station in Antarctica, the Coast Guard's home base on this icy continent.

I hope you will enjoy this adventure with me by reading my daily journals and viewing my photos. In this way, you can come along with me and learn about the Coast Guard's activity in Antarctica, the communities it serves, and a little bit about this remote seventh continent.

My journal began on Sunday, February 6. So take a look!

Sincerely,

Peter DeFazio
