Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd, Jr., USN (25 October 1888 – 11 March 1957) was an American naval officer who specialized in feats of exploration. He was a pioneering American aviator, polar explorer, and organizer of polar logistics. Aircraft flights, in which he served as a navigator and expedition leader, crossed the Atlantic Ocean, a segment of the Arctic Ocean, and a segment of the Antarctic Plateau. Byrd claimed that his expeditions had been the first to reach the North Pole and the South Pole by air. That Roald Amundsen has the first verifiable claim to each pole is now the majority opinion among polar experts.[SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2][/SUP] Byrd was a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the highest honor for heroism given by the United States.
[h=2]Contents[/h]


[h=2]Ancestry[/h] He was the son of Esther Bolling (Flood) and Richard Evelyn Byrd, Sr. He was a descendant of one of the First Families of Virginia. His ancestors include planter John Rolfe and his wife Pocahontas, William Byrd II of Westover Plantation, who established Richmond, and Robert "King" Carter, a colonial governor. He was the brother of Virginia Governor and U.S. Senator Harry F. Byrd, a dominant figure in Virginia Democratic Party between the 1920s and 1960s; their father served as Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates for a time.
[h=2]Family[/h] Admiral Byrd was married (20 January 1915) to the former Marie Donaldson Ames (he named a region of Antarctic land he discovered "Marie Byrd Land") and had four children:

  • Richard Evelyn Jr., (grandchildren Richard Byrd, Leverett S. Byrd, Ames Byrd, and Harry Flood Byrd II)
  • Evelyn Bolling Byrd Clarke (grandchildren Evelyn Byrd Clarke, Marie Ames Clarke, Eleanor Clarke, and Richard Byrd Clarke)
  • Catherine Agnes Byrd Breyer (grandchildren Robert Byrd Breyer and Katherine Ames Breyer)
  • Helen Byrd Stabler (grandchildren David Stabler and Ann Blanchard Stabler)
He also had 3 great grandchildren by Richard Byrd Clarke

  • Samuel Ames Clarke
  • Anna Marie Clarke
  • Richard Byrd Clarke Jr
[h=2]Education and U.S. Navy[/h] Byrd attended the Virginia Military Institute for two years and spent one year at the University of Virginia before financial circumstances inspired his transfer to the United States Naval Academy, where he was appointed Midshipman on May 28, 1908.[SUP][3][/SUP]
On June 8, 1912 he graduated from Academy and was commissioned an ensign in the United States Navy. On July 14, 1912 he was assigned to the battleship USS Missouri and later assigned to the gunboat USS Dolphin.[SUP][4][/SUP] On March 15, 1916 he was medically retired, promoted to the rank of lieutenant (junior grade) and assigned as the Inspector and Instructor for the Rhode Island Naval Militia in Providence, Rhode Island.[SUP][5][/SUP]
Although technically retired, Byrd was able to serve as a retired officer on active duty during the First World War. He took flying lessons and earned his pilot wings. He developed a passion for flight, and pioneered many techniques for navigating airplanes over the open ocean including drift indicators and bubble sextants. Byrd was assigned to the Office of Naval Operations and was promoted to lieutenant on September 2, 1918 and to temporary lieutenant commander on September 21, 1918.
After the war, Byrd's expertise in aerial navigation resulted in his appointment to plan the flight path for the U.S. Navy's 1919 transatlantic crossing. Of the three flying boats that attempted it, only Albert Read's NC-4 aircraft completed the trip, becoming the first ever transatlantic flight.[SUP][6][/SUP]

وہ نارتھ پول ور ساوتھ پول میں ضرور گیا تھا
مگر
جیسے ان امریکیوں کی عادت ہے یہ باز باتیں اپنے پاس ایڈ کر لیتے ہیں
وہ میں نہیں مانتا
وہ کہتا ہے کہ میں وہاں نیپلیم سے ملا یہ بکواس ہے
اس دنیا میں ایک سوراخ ضرور ہے جو کہ نارتھ پول اور ساؤتھ پول دونوں طرف سے کھلا ہے
میرے خیال میں یاجوج ماجوج اس سوراخ کے اندر بند ہے
اس سوراخ میں آپ نارتھ یا ساوتھ دونوں پولوں سے اندر نہیں جا سکتے
بلکے
اس دنیا کوئی جگہ ایسی ضرور ہے جو کہ ابھی تک ڈسکور نہیں ہو سکی
یعنی
جس جگہ کو ذولقرنین نے بند کر دیا تھا
