Navy Air Patrol
Seeks Ice Island
One of a group of Arctic Ocean
ice islands discovered by two Navy
air patrol crews may become the
Air Force’s Ice Island Alfa-2.
The original Alfa, which for
four months prior to last Novem
ber was home to an Air Force
group engaged in International
Geophysical Year studies, broke
up during heavy autumn gales.
Because IGY scientists hadn’t
completed their studies, Navy P2V
Neptune aircraft, assigned to the
Alaskan Sea Frontier, have been
seeking another floating platform
from which the job can be comple
ted.
Under the operational control
of the AlSEAFron commander,
Rear Admiral A. W. McKeehnie,
the two Neptune crews flew 18,
000 track mile& and scanned 260,
000 square miles of Arctic Ocean
before finding likely floes.
Alfa-2’s temporary residents will
be assigned to Alaskan Air Com
mand’s 11th Air Division (De
fense). Direct support to all pha
ses of the project is charged to the
Air Division which maintains
headquarters on Ladd Air Force
Base and is commanded by Briga
dier General Gordon H. Austin,
USAF.
On the spot inspections of the
new found ice to determine whe
ther any are suitable for Alfa-2
will be conducted by Air Force
Captain James F. Smith, USAF.
The Captain commanded the men
who rode Alfa-1 on its voyage and
will fulfill like duties on its succes
sor.
He" will be accompanied on the
inspection trip by the Navy’s
Lieutenant John C. Garland of De
troit, Mich,, and Lieutenant (ju
nior grade) R. W. Burt, Jr., of
Bagdad, Ariz. .
The officers who command the
two Navy crews that searched for
the ice island are Lieutenant Com
mander Floyd M. Barkley of Mc
Kees Docks, Pa., and Lieutenant
Garland.
Plan Loyalty Day
To Be Held May 1
'‘The V.F.W. sponsored and di
rected Loyalty Day has become
established as a time for open and
avowed allegiance to this great
nation,” said Commander Charles
Christoffersfen, V.F.W. Post No.
7056 of Kodiak. His statement
comes as he announced plans for
the Loyalty Day celebration here
on May 1.
Loyalty Day was originated
some decades ago by V.F.W. mem
bers in the East as a counter
demonstration to the annual May
Day mass meetings of Communists,
and only last summer, President
Eisenhower signed leigslation
making Loyalty Day an official
obseravtion throughout the coun
try.’ '
The idea of the positive answer
by loyal Americans^ caught on,
grew and spread until in 1950 the
obseravnce of Loyalty Day was in
augrated by the V.F.W. on a na
tionwide basis.
Commander Christoffersen poin
ted out that the full cooperation
of other civic, veteran, fraternal,
labor and women’s oragnizations,
religious, educational and youth
groups as well as individual citi
zens is welcomed.
Various units representing va
rious oragnizations in the city will
assemble in the early evening on
May 1, and participate in a parade.
R. P. Harris is chairman of the
Loyalty Day celebration.
