DER 390 Photos 6

Balleny Islands, December, 1965. We crossed the Antarctic Circle on Christmas Day.

Typical sea conditions during the Antarctic storms.

During a 60 South picket Bell, RM-3 and I were on the starboard side of the 01 level (outside of Radio Central). The ship took a sharp roll to starboard just as I snapped the photo. The ship continued rolling, and a split second later Bell wasn't smiling as we both held on for dear life till the ship rolled to port.


I can remember taking this photo from the deck of the USS Calcaterra, Dec. 1965. It's one of my favorites.
