This picture was taken in September of 1994 above the
Arctic Circle north of Alaska. The submarine broke through a few feet of
ice allowing only the sail, as seen in the background, to break the
surface. As best as I can remember, the weather was fair and the
temperature was near 15 degrees F. We spent several hours out on
the ice during which we had a barbeque, played football, hit a few golf
balls, took several pictures depicting the distance to various crew
members hometowns, and generally just relaxed and enjoyed the serenity
and tranquility that is the Arctic.
