Operation AXIOM
One hundred years ago to the day, 14 December 1911, Roald Amundsen & his Norwegian expedition because the first men to reach the South Pole. Many before & many since have perished trying to accomplish the same feat, but Amundsen's intelligence, preparation, & endurance allowed him to conquer the Antarctic & bring all his men home to tell the tale. Mankind's progress depends upon such a spirit of exploration, & it is right & proper that we should remember & honor Roald Amundsen's, et al., achievement. Reminder-link.
