Jack Bursey went on to accompany Byrd on his third Antarctic expedition in 1939-41, during which he and two other men made one of the longest dog-team trips ever recorded. They sledged into Marie Byrd Land over the Ross Ice Shelf, the first known men to step on this land, traveling more than in 83 days. Today there are mountains in the Hal Flood Range named after them: Mount Bursey (76 05' S 133 35' W), Mount Moulton and Mount Berlin. Once again, each of the men on the expedition received a special Congressional medal.
