Col. Ronald Smith, from Headquarters Air Mobility Command at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., speaks about his inspirations for the design of a commemorative, centenary first edition Antarctic airway chart during a presentation of the chart at the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog in Saint Louis, Mo., Nov. 2. The chart, created by Colonel Smith who was commander of Operation Deep Freeze from 2005 to 2008, shows “Airway 338” waypoints with each waypoint named after sled dog teams of Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen and the pony pack team of British explorer Capt. Robert Falcon Scott. The aeronautical chart is used in international flight navigation from New Zealand to Antarctica -- especially for Operation Deep Freeze.
