Sea Chanty When cuttermen they praise their ships We always say them nay. The finest is the breaker That was named for Glacier Bay. We ain ' t afraid of snow nor ice, No more of heavy seas. What if we stove her in a mite We ' ll pipe now duty D.C. With Captain Hewel at the conn She plows Antarctic seas. Now send the message loud and clear, You others Follow Me! So cheer up me lads, Let your courage never fail. While the bonny ship the GLACIER Goes ice breakin ' with the whales. So cheer up me boys. Let your courage never fail, While the bonny ship the GLACIER Goes ice breakin ' with the whales And when we go ashore again We ' ll go upon a spree. We ' ll spend our wages hard and fast And then go back to sea. f f Now GLACIER is the finest ship To ever break the ice. And if we don ' t get through at first We ' ll back and ram all night We ' ll make the ale-house for to ring, Our glasses raised on high. And all the girls in Portland, For to sing 0-hush-abye. We ' ll send the helos out ahead To scout and find the way. Then go where no ship s been before Into Pine Island Bay. So cheer up me boys, Let your courage never fail. While the bonny ship the GLACIER Goes ice breakin ' with the whales. Now raise your glass to absent friends, Wherever they may be. We never will forget them While GLACIER sails the seas.

LCDR BARRY CAPELLI Engineer Officer The department had an exceptionally suc- cessful Deep Freeze which included excellent evaluations and scores at Refresher Training, highly reliable operation of the propulsion plant in and out of the ice, excellent hotel service and the first successful completion of a full power trial in 29 years. The consistently high performance of the entire department in preparing for, and carrying out, this Deep Freeze set a major landmark in the history of USCGC GLACIER. r :ir ' LT. Scott Glover AEO Eng.
