HICKAM AIR FORCE BASE, Hawaii, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- U.S. military officials Friday began the annual Operation Deep Freeze mission in Antarctica, considered one of the most difficult peacetime missions.
The U.S. Defense Department launched the 2009-10 season of Operation Deep Freeze for operational and logistic support of the scientific research activities in Antarctica.
The 13th Air Force leads a joint air task force to support airlift, deep field support, search and rescue operations and medical evacuation support for the U.S. Antarctic Program and the National Science Foundation.
Airlift missions for Operation Deep Freeze involve C-17 Globemaster II and LC-130 Hercules support.
Active-duty members from many units in the U.S. military will work in support of the U.S. Antarctic Program as part of its commitment to stability in the Pacific region, the U.S. Air Force says.
Christchurch International Airport in New Zealand serves as the staging point for deployment to McMurdo Station, Antarctica.
