There is a long, proud tradition of '''United States Navy''' involvement in the exploration and governance of both [[Westarctica]] and the entire continent of [[Antarctica]]. Without the influence of the Navy, it's quite possible Westarctica would not exist at all.

==Naval exploration of Western Antarctica==
From the 1920s to the 1960s, the United States Navy led the world in exploration of [[Marie Byrd Land]], the most remote part of Antarctica, which remained largely unexplored and had not been claimed by any nation.

Rear Admiral [[Richard E. Byrd]] was the driving force behind the Navy's penetration into the Great White Continent and his teams largely consisted of Navy personnel with some civilian scientists to support their operations. As a result of this heavy involvement of U.S. sailors and naval officers, most features in [[Westarctica]] were consequently named after them. A few examples include:

* [[Dorrel Rock]]: Leo E. Dorrel - Hospital corpsman at [[Byrd Station]].
* [[McDonald Heights]]: Captain Edwin A. McDonald - Deputy Commander of the U.S. Naval Support Force, [[Antarctica]].
* [[Breeding Nunatak]]: George H. Breeding - Storekeeper of Byrd Station.
* [[Cape Burks]]: Lieutenant Commander Ernest Burks - Senior helicopter pilot on the USS ''Glacier''.
* [[Dotson Ice Shelf]]: Lieutenant William A. Dotson - formerly Officer in Charge of the Ice Reconnaissance Unit of the Naval Oceanographic Office.
