USS ARNEB AKA-56 OPERATION DEEP FREEZE TWO AND 'ROUAND THE WORLD CRUISE 1956-T957 The world around us is continually revealing new mysteries which await discovery by the worldis scientists. From the time the Antarctic S continent first was discovered in l8-'10 through the present nuclear era, V this frozen wonderland has been one mystery ,confronting the scien- tists of the world. ' The United States Navy's Operation Deep Freeze is supporting our scientists in their work at the Antarctic in coniunction with the Inter- national Geophysical Year in l957-58. The IGY program is an effort of 39 countries to uncover many scientific riddles by recording phe- nomena such as weather, magnetism, gravity, anti-glow, and other geophysical elements. Discoveries by our scientists will lead to a better world and the much soughtafter goal - progress for the World and our Nation. The Arneb in six months from November, l956, tothe 30th of April travel- led 3l,472 miles around the world in support of IGY. And inthese pages that part will always be preserved.

HTORS ic 5 5 in S-'L-A V A Z The USS ARNEB a veteran ot many polar operations including last year's first Operation Deep Freeze to the Antarctic began preparation for Operation Deep Freeze II in early autumn. ComPhrbLant's only I re resentative she was loaded with 5,000 tons of cargo for the expedition at Davisville, Rhode Island, anil when Task Force 43 and Mobile Construction Battalion One personnel were aboard ,the ship was almost ready. . . . Returning to' Norfolk she departed on November 2nd for Panama City transiting the 'Panama Canal. During the ship's short stay in Panama from Nov. 8 to Nov. ll, the officers and men enioyed liberty Cen- tral American style. I The Arneb next dipped her bow into the vast Pacific Ocean and headed towards Wellington, New Zealand, where she arrived I8 days later on Nov. 30. New Zealanders treated the Arneb crew with the friendlinessthat hasalways been known of them, and, while the ship stayed in scenic Wellington from the 30th of November tothe I0th of December, aII hands were exposed to this unspoiled way of life. Then ona rainy Decemberl0th' the Arneb set its course for the Antarctic where she was to spend three months contributing to the International Geophysical Year program. . The shipenteredthe 420-mile wide Ross Sea ice pack on December lath, and arrived off Cape Hallett in Northern Victorialand on December 19th. She then was diverted to McMurdo Sound, arriving on Dec- ember 24th under the shadow ofthe towering volcano of Mount Erebus. An estimated one-hundred and fifty thousand penguins greeted the Arneb and the United States Coast Guard icebreaker Northwind, which accompanied her, when Task Group 43.6 arrived at Cape Hallett on December 29th. Morethan9,000 penguinsandtheir offspring were removed from a T00-yard area on Dec- ember 30, 1956. Then on New Year's Eve the Arneb met what could be considered its stiffest test since the day she was commissioned in T943 when a severe continent storm trapped the ship between bay ice and a 200-mi le ice field. The incident markedthe firsttime news ofthe shipappearedin the front pages of many newspapers in the United States, exemplified by the Detroit Times headline, Antarctic Death Trap . . . Ice Grinds TwoShips. Eventually breakingthe wrath ofthe crushing ice, the Arneb made her way to within 800 yards of Cape Hallett on Jan. 2 where temporary repairs were effected. The next six days were spent erecting Adare Station and transferring cargo to Penguin Beach in the first United States amphibious unloading opera- tion in Antarctic history. Le0vilf19C0Pe Hallett on Jcrwvry 9, she steamed to Mcfvlurdo Sound before leaving with the Glacier, the Navy s newest and most powerful icebreaker, and the Greenville Victory, for Knox Coast. On Jan. 3lsttheArneb, again slightly damaged from the heavy pack ice of Vincennes Bay, found herself OICIUFI4 Island, one ofthe Windmill ff K sical Year station. Again the Arneb's boats, Navy Seabees and ship's company personnel ioined hands to fight the F066 pigarnsttrme mbuildingthe station.
