The paper presents a brief history of Signal Corps radar ice-depth sounding, discusses past, present and proposed measuring techniques, and details the first ice-depth survey flights ever attempted operationally. These, conducted at thirteen points along 1,000 miles of Antarctic coastline in early 1962, discovered several previously unknown geographical features through as much as 1,000 feet of ice, in an aggregate flying time of less than seven hours.
