I’m sorry to write you about my father’s death on December 23. He was a member of the BAS Club, and was interviewed a little while back about his experiences in the Antarctic in the 1950s. Before he died, he asked if his obituary (below) could be forwarded to you for communication to the BAS Club membership.

UKAHT are interested in all materials that relate to the buildings and their use – primarily before the move of Base F to the new site on Galindez Island in 1954, but also how the building was altered and used after the move.
