not have been possible without
radio contact with supply points.
Captain William J. Curry of
San Angelo, Texas, supply offi
cer for the expedition, revealed,
that during the last 15 days of
the mission 10,000 pounds of ra
tions alone were dropped *to
members of the party.
Special euipment was brought
from widely scattered points in
the States and Alaska for the
mission. Euipment used was sup
plied by the army.
The peak on which the plane
crashed was first thought to be
Mt. Brooks, but it was determin
ed later that it is unnamed, and
members of the mission are plan
ning to name it in commemora
tion of the service men who were
kliled in the crash.
