Mackinsey watched the LC130 Hercules land on the airfield, and the men wearing parkas rushing out to pick up the supplies. He turned back to his prefab shelter, one of many, and smiled as he knew that Winter Airfield, the airfield he was on, was the first base established in the Arctic. It had around four airstrips and hangars, one for resupply and the other three housed one P4M Mercator, and two Tornado GR Mk1's. There was also a Westland Wessex and a CH 47 Chinook.
