They had been on patrol near a Chilean base, when their Snowcat vehicle fell into the 40m (130ft) hole that had been covered by a coating of snow. Rescuers had to prise open the roof of the Snowcat to recover the bodies of the three men trapped inside. Four others had managed to climb out of the vehicle and were pulled to safety. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4297550.stm Dear List members, Depending on the time of the event, the operational dasha is Me/Ve/Ke/Mo/Ra or Ju.
