My name is Eugene Herrman, and I served as a cook with the 69-70 winter over crew, as Mc Murdo, still have some great souvenirs from the Antarctic, would like to hear from other crew members from 69-70. It will be 50 years shortly since my time there, but reminisce about it all the time.

Guess I will check in because I am still alive. My place in all this W/O 68-69/ RM3/MSG CNTR. I am now 70 years old and can say with confidence, my time on the ICE is my greatest experience. I call it my National Geographic moment. God Blass All OAE's. Remember, when on the ice, we are not here for a long time but here for a good time. I had that good time.

I started out in the firehouse at McMurdo, summer 70; made AG3 and off to McGregor camp for Nov 70; back to Det "C" at McMurdo for Christmas and New Year's, and finally a trip to Hallett on the Burton Island where I would be the next two seasons till we closed the station on 19 Feb 1973. Any Hallett or Det "C" guys out there?

Hello David, Thanks for checking in on the guest book. Looking for anybody in particular, I might be able to help. We have over 1200 members in the OAE Association. Might be one or 2 you know from that era. I wintered over 74/75 and the radiomen that I remember were Billy Baker and John West. Billy Baker wintered over several times. If your interested in receiving a membership packet with some goodies in it. Send me your physical address and i will get a packet out to you. Gabby
