- Self - Secretary of the Navy James V. Forrestal: [explaining the reason for the enterprise] There is only one untouched reservoir of raw materials left in the world and that is in the region known as Antarctica, an area larger than the combined area of the United States and Europe. The American government is sending a naval expedition to that region. The purpose is to train our Navy in polar operations so that it may better perform its function of preserving the peace upon the seven seas of the world. Beyond that, the American government is seeking to do its share in the discovery and release to the world of the unknown treasures of Antarctica, in the interests of all mankind.
