The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory by Authors: David Howarth Released: February, 2001 ISBN: 1585742899 Paperback Sales Rank: List price: Our price: You save: Book > The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory > Customer Reviews: Average Customer Rating: The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory > Customer Review #1: Another side to the Big One The Sledge Patrol: A WWII Epic of Escape, Survival, and Victory > Customer Review #2: Quiet Heroism Proving that truth is stranger than fiction, Sledge Patrol tells the story of ordinary men accomplishing unbelievable feats under extreme physical conditions and bizarre political circumstances during WWII. Living year-round in the Arctic desolation of eastern Greenland, nine men surreptitiously radioed crucial weather data to the Allies and patrolled the extensive coastline for a Nazi landing. When the Germans arrive, the conflict begins. The book is exciting and inspiring, with moments that are both touching and funny. One of the highlights of the book is how the unarmed and unaggressive band of Danes, Norwegians and Eskimos can outlast and outdistance the better provisioned Germans who arent prepared for life, let alone combat, in the frozen north.

Greenland Summary Geography, Culture, and History Greenland is the largest island in the world, measuring 2,670 km from its northern to southern tips, but it has a human population of only about 50,000. All of Greenland has an Arctic climate (mean temperatures below +10 E C for the warmest month). Eighty-five percent of its 2,175,600 sq km area is covered with a massive ice cap that reaches 3,200 m near the center and is over 1,370 m thick in places. Only the Antarctic ice sheet is larger. It holds 9% of the world's fresh water and if all the ice were to melt, the world's oceans reportedly would rise six to seven meters. Annual snows accumulate on the cap and due to weight, the ice flows out toward the edges. From the central mass, ribbons of ice descend along mountain valleys and ravines, pushing hills or large rocks and gravel before them. At other times, the glacier may crown or appear to hang atop high cliff faces. The glacier directly joins the sea in some locations and may move at rates up to 25-30 m each day, berthing icebergs the size of city blocks. The native people of Greenland are believed to be descendants of aboriginal hunters and the "Thule Culture" which probably came to Greenland about the same time as the Norsemen who later vanished. The native peoples (Eskimo culture) of the Arctic are known more traditionally as Inuit"the People." The term "Greenlander" is usually given to all native people of Greenland. The native people of northwestern Greenland, who distinguish themselves from other West Greenlanders, are given their own name by themselvesInuhuit meaning "great and beautiful human beings." Northwest Greenland is known as the Thule District or Avanersuaq.

28. Greenland - Atlapedia Online LOCATION AND geography greenland, the world's largest island, is located northeast of the North American Continent. Around 83% of greenland is a permanent ice cap and mountains line http://www.atlapedia.com/online/countries/greenlnd.htm

OFFICIAL NAME: Greenland CAPITAL: Nuuk SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT: Self Governing Overseas Territory of Denmark AREA: 2,175,600 Sq Km (840,000 Sq Mi) ESTIMATED 2000 POPULATION LOCATION AND GEOGRAPHY: Greenland, the world's largest island, is located northeast of the North American Continent. Around 83% of Greenland is a permanent ice cap and mountains line both the east and west coasts holding the inland ice in place. The highest mountains are located in the east while a gradual slope to the coast causes glaciers to discharge icebergs into the sea. Both coasts are irregular and broken by numerous fjords. The coastal areas are the only regions suitable for human settlement. CLIMATE: Greenland has a polar climate in the northern regions while the southwest coastal areas have a maritime climate with long cold winters and short cool summers. Precipitation decreases from south to north. Average annual temperature ranges in Thule are from -23 degrees Celsius (9 degrees Fahrenheit) in February to 5 degrees Celsius (41 degrees Fahrenheit) in July while in the south they range from -8 degrees Celsius (18 degrees Fahrenheit) in February to 10 degrees Celsius (50 degrees Fahrenheit) in July. PEOPLE: The principal ethnic majority are the indigenous Eskimos or Greenlanders who account for 92% of the population. The remainder are Europeans mostly Danes.
