"I'm not sure of the exact year when women started deploying down south. I did my summer support tours (3) in 1988, 1989 and 1990/91. Women by the time I started were well established in McMurdo as well as smaller bases. "
"I was assigned to NSFA from August 1988 to October 1991. I did 3 summer support deployments to Antarctica. I worked in the Personnel Office. Some of the best years of my life. Fantastic duty station."
"Thanks for the welcome. I was with NSFA in the personnel office. It was a great duty assignment. Loved my time on the ice. I will check out the Antarctica link. Thanks again."
