Discover the body of the meteorologist in Antarctica, which made the family closure after 66 years

The British survey in Antarctica announced that residues The 25 -year -old meteorologist Dennis “Tink” was found 66 years after his disappearance. Although Bell’s remains were recovered in January, they were not only officially identified.

“I have long surrendered to find my brother. It’s great and amazing. I cannot overcome it,” David Bell, Dennis’s brother, Dennis, I told BBC News. The perpetrator stated that David was the person who answered the door when the family received a tingling to inform them of the bad news, which he described as a “horrific moment.”

David also said British Antarctic Survey (Bass) that he and his sister, Valerie Kelly, were “shocked and amazed” to hear the remains of their brother after decades of his deadly accident.

David David and Valerie samples, Professor Dennis Sendumb Court, a genetic scientist in Kings College London, helped. Ensure that the remains They were their brother. The two were “more than a million times” more likely than not being linked, according to BAS.

After school, Bell joined the Royal Air Force for National Service and trained him as a radio operator before joining the FIDS dependencies as a meteorological specialist in 1958.

On July 26, 1959, Bill set out, with three other men and two dogs of dogs, to climb an ice river Survey and geological work. Men were divided into pairs with Bell accompanied by the surveyor Jeff Stoxus, while the meteorologist Ken Gibson was with the geologist Colin Barton, according to the Bass. Bass indicated that Bill and Stoxis set out about 30 minutes before Gibson and Parton.

With dog’s fatigue in soft deep snow, Bell tried to motivate them by moving forward to urge them to. However, according to BAS, he did it without crawling. And that was when he fell into a squash, an accident that led to his death and a decade of his remains.

It seems that Stokes called for Bill, who answered. Then he reduced a rope and told Bell to link him himself. Dramaticly, Bell tied the rope to his belt, not his body, according to what Al -Bass said, citing the book of Anthony Nelson “of ice and men.” While the team tried to withdraw it to safety, his belt erupted, and Bell returned to the pieces. This time, however, Bell did not answer.

The weather increased quickly after Bill fell, and while his colleagues risked their lives to save him, they could not do so. Gibson said that after about 12 hours They found the site “There was no way that could have survived,” according to BAS.

“Dennis was one of the many Fids members who contributed to science and exploring the early Antarctica under very harsh conditions. Although he was lost in 1959, his memory lived between colleagues and the legacy of polar research. He said in a statement.

The remains of Bell were transferred to the Falkland Islands on the Bass Royal Research ship Sir David Attenburo. Then they were handed over to his decorative judge in the British Antarctic, Malcolm Simons, who accompanied them from Stanley in the Falkland Islands to London.
