     original

 The ship was name Defrost
name after how people on the
planet Earth use to thaw ice.

You see Defrost was aptly in
fact named because currently
the ship which was run under
my command Ron Harper we
were to currently tour the polar
ice cap,the nothern one right
now,there have been reports
of unusual activity up here the
kind unknown presently .
 

We were to investigate but the
only vessel known to be able
too get up here is a submarine
so the Navy let me command
of one there best,the S.S.Def-
rost and that was where we in
fact were heading to the north
polar ice cap.
 

My crew was the best me I was
glad just to be out here tired of
sitting behind that desk so long.
 

I was beginning to let my mind
wonder a bit ,you know .
 

Terrible how age does that too
you ,Senility I think the word was.
 

Now we were watching some ice
breaking apart and falling baway
I marvelled at the sight of it too .
 

' Keep navigating away from that
lieutenant Asters,' I ordered the
helmsman of the Defrost, I did not
have to remind him of his job he in
fact knew too well too . 
 

The entire crew knew their jobs well.
 

' Yes sir,we are,I find it beautiful you
know,seeing nature's wonders up cl-
ose like this,it's too bad more don't.'
 

I silently agreed with him too.
