Americans at McMurdo base going the winter without eggs

This is wrong!! I am a chef at McMurdo Station this winter and we have eggs! Yes at first we did think we were not going to get any eggs, but at the last moment (and the last flight) we did get eggs.

Good article on the lack of fresh eggs, but I really have problems when they call McMurdo a New Zealand supplied station. It's 100% American supplied while Scott Base (NZ) relies on the Americans for all supplies as well as flights to get their personnel to the ice. A small detail, but one that really shouldn't have been missed.
