Text copyright © 2008 Bald Eagle Research Institute All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system or transmitted, in any form or by any means, without prior permission from the Bald Eagle Research Institute, University of Alaska Southeast, 11120 Glacier Hwy. Juneau, Alaska 99801. ISBN XXXXXXXXXXXX Cover photo by David Predeger. 1 Preface Marshall Lind Chancellor, University of Alaska, Southeast, Juneau, Alaska As one who never tires of the presence of Bald Eagles in our Alaskan environment, it is a particular pleasure for me to introduce this unique book. I feel confident you will share my enthusiasm as you read through Bald Eagles in Alaska. The book is unique because almost all of the authors are long time Alaskans who know Bald Eagles, not as an endangered species, but as an integral part of the avifauna of the 49th state. Chapters in this text present a range of topics on culture, conservation and management as well as sound scientific data. Various papers cover the Alaska habitat from the northern rainforest to the treeless Aleutian Islands. Diverse human attitudes are presented from the Tlingit Indians to the bounty hunters; from the modern conservationists of Haines to the ambitious people of New York who are trying to replace their diminished eagle population with Bald Eagle stock from Alaska. In short, Bald Eagles in Alaska offers the best portrait that has ever been assembled in the status and ecology of Bald Eagles in Alaska.

    Antarctic Deep Freeze Oral History Project Interview with Victor Young, LCDR, CEC USN (Ret.) conducted on May 10, 1999, by Dian O. Belanger DOB: Today is the 10th of May, 1999. I'm Dian Belanger. I'm speaking with Victor Young about his experiences during Deep Freeze I at Little America 5 and the trail party to Byrd Station. Thank you, Vic, for speaking with me. VY: Okay. Anything you want to know, if I can remember it, you'll get it. DOB: Please start by telling me something about your background. I'm interested in where you grew up, where you went to school, what you decided to do with your life, and in particular I'm interested in anything that might suggest that you'd end up from all of that in a place as exotic as Antarctica. VY: Well, I was born in North Bergen, New Jersey, and I grew up there. I joined the Navy in 1939 in an adjacent town called Hoboken. DOB: Were you a high school graduate then? VY: No. I had gone through three years of high school, and things were a little different then as far as the economy was concerned. Anyway, I was sent to a ship, what we used to call a beef boat. It hauled all kinds of food stuffs. Had two holds of refrigerated meat and so forth and three holds of dry stores. From there I was transferred to the Naval Air Station at Jacksonville, Florida. And during the time that I was aboard ship, I had to strike for something—a rate that you want to get involved in.
