Cargo-carrying commercial
Dianes coming in from Canada
were used to supplement the air
irmada The midnight sun, pro
viding almost a full 24 hours of
daylight made it possible for
some of the planes to make two
trips in a single day.
Ammunition, rations, tents,
even 37 millimeter guns and
field kitchens—everything nec
essary to make the force self
sufficient—were moved by air
without one single accident.
Heavy weapons were brought
up later by boat. The troops
stepped out of the planes at
Nome, equipped and ready to
fight. A total of 218 flights were
made in the movement.
Later, after it became appar
ent the expepted invasion would
not materialize, the troops pre
pared themselves for the bitter
cold of the winter to come.
Tents were winterized, buildings
went up, the supply of rations
was supplemented. Nome is ice
bound about nine months of
each year, and all supplies mov
ing by boat must be brought in
during the three summer
months.
The troops maneuvered in
weather from 20 to 35 degrees
below zero. They found that
none of the elaborate footgear
provided by the Army protected •
the feet from this particular
type of weather as w.,11 as the
native mukluK, made by the
Eski os from deer and reindeer
hides or seal skins
The second battalion remain
ed in the Nome area for about a
year, later moving out the
Aleutians to Dutch Harbor for it
short stay, and then to Adak
where they became acquainted
with another type of disagree
able weather.
