Effective icebreaker and excellent platform for research and science

Oden finished breaking the ship channel successfully on Saturday morning. They are working on the turning basin in McMurdo and maintaining the ice channel at the moment.

Congratulations- Job well done! Oden is an effective icebreaker and an excellent platform for research and science.
