Palmer Medevac
« on: March 08, 2009, 12:44:44 AM »
Any one have any updates per the attached blog excerpt posted last week?

"Life at Palmer Station got even more exciting last week, when a member of the science support staff (also our friend) got sick. The call was made rather quickly by the physician to try and get the person out as soon as possible, taking advantage of the clear weather window we were experiencing at the time.

Within 24 hours, a plan was set and in motion to have our friend flown out of Palmer Station and back to Chile. All involved did an incredible job, and to have someone out of here within 24 hours is pretty remarkable. We are in Antarctica after all."
