USS Glacier (AGB-4) (later USCGC Glacier (WAG/WAGB-4)) was a U.S. Navy, then U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker which served in the first through fifteenth Operation Deep Freeze expeditions. Glacier was the first icebreaker to make her way through the frozen Bellingshausen Sea, and most of the topography in the area is named for her crew members. When built, Glacier had the largest capacity single armature DC motors ever installed on a ship. Glacier was capable of breaking ice up to 20 feet (6.1 m) thick, and of continuous breaking of 4-foot (1.2 m) thick ice at 3 knots (5.6 km/h; 3.5 mph).

  • Die USS Glacier (AGB-4) (später USCGC Glacier (WAG/WAGB-4)) war ein Eisbrecher der United States Navy, später der United States Coast Guard, der auf den ersten 15 Expeditionen der Operation Deep Freeze in die Antarktika eingesetzt wurde. Die Glacier war der erste Eisbrecher, der sich einen Weg durch die zugefrorene Bellingshausen-See bahnte und sehr viele geographische Punkte dort sind nach Crew-Mitgliedern des Schiffes benannt. Zur Zeit ihres Baus war die Glacier das Schiff mit den stärksten installierten Gleichstrommotoren. Die Glacier konnte Eisstärken bis zu 6,1 m brechen und in Dauerfahrt bei 3 kn (5,6 km/h) Eis von bis zu 1,20 m durchstoßen. (de)
