Station two beckons today. Wicked.
The weather is clear and a lot warmer today. We start the day with truck checks making sure everything is in running order. We get word that the US today news crew are arriving this afternoon. They’re going to do a simultanious broadcast from both the north pole and the south pole on november 5.

We are outside when a call comes in. A c-130, which had just left 10 minutes ago for the South Pole, is on its return to McMurdo. We have an inbound emergency; there is an electrical smell onboard. We jump into action. The plane lands safely and after a visual inspection enters the apron. No drama, but excitement for us fireys.
