| "Dream big,
and dare to fail."
Colonel Norman Dane Vaughan, December
19, 1905 – December 23, 2005, was an American dogsled driver
and explorer whose first claim to fame was participating in Admiral
Byrd's first expedition to the South Pole. He also mushed in a professional
capacity as part of a search and rescue unit in World War II, in
sporting events like the Olympics and the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog
Race, and in three Presidential Inauguration ceremonies. |
