    Antarctic airway chart -- designed by past Operation Deep Freeze commander -- presented to Saint Louis dog museum

    This photo shows one of the named waypoints on a commemorative, centenary, first-edition Antarctic airway chart that was presented to the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog in St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 2, 2010. Col. Ronald Smith, Air National Guard advisor to the Air Mobility Command Director of Strategic Plans, Requirements and Programs at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., designed the chart as he was commander of Operation Deep Freeze from 2005 to 2008. The chart 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.
