work.
But for 13 years he had been
considered a model officer.

Stranded Plane
Off Ice Island
17th NAVAL DISTRICT HEAD
QUARTERS, Kodiak, (AMNS) —
After a complete engine change
in three and a half days, the Navy
patrol bomber that has been
stranded on the ice island near
the North Pole since April 5, land
ed safely at Thule, Greenland, on
Thursday.
The new engine arrived at
“Fletcher’s Island” April 18 in an
Air Force C-54 after the Navy
crew members and Air Force in
habitants of the ice island labored
night and day to construct a run
way capable of holding this larg
est of planes to land on the polar
cap. The engine crew of eight,
from Kodiak had arrived on the
ice island several days earlier.
According to Fleet Aircraft Ser
vice, under normal conditions in
a warm hangar it takes eight men
three days to change an engine.
That Lt. Trotter and his seven
men were able to perform the
task on the exposed ice in only
three and a half days is a credit
not only to the men who must
have worked around the clock,
but to the lessons the Navy has
learned in Operation Ski Jump.
The Navy loaded 13,500 pounds
of equipment including the engine
and “A” frame for hoisting the
engine into position into the C-54.
This included a 750 pound pre
fabricated hut to protect the men
from the elements while working,
and two “Salamanders” gasoline
aircraft heaters. They left Ko
diak April 8.
The Navy P2V was stranded on
the ice island after the engine
faltered following a take-off dur
ing the Navy’s operational tests
on the last phase of Ski Jump.

offered their services, and will
