US Coast Guard begins ice-breaking operations in Lake Superior

Great article,thank you SSG Robert Mark Odom!

Ah, Operation Taconite. Been there, done that, still have that t-shirt. I grew up in Wisconsin and thought I knew what cold was - until I survived freezing temperatures with gale-force winds, breaking ice off the deck at midnight in the middle of Lake Superior. FUUuuuuuuuu!!!!!
