Well isn’t THAT interesting! Because something left on the surface of the Greenland icecap in 1942 turns out to be buried under 268 feet of ice and snow five decades later.
“On 15 July 1942, due to poor weather and limited visibility, six P-38 fighters of 94th Fighter Squadron/1st FG and two B-17 bombers were forced to make emergency landings on the Greenland ice field.”
“Glacier Girl, along with the unit’s five other fighters and the two B-17s, were eventually buried under 268 feet (82 m) of snow and ice that had built up over the ensuing decades.”

Glacier girl says the icecap isn’t shrinking, it’s growing.
Love it
