		Under the command of CDR Bob Perry, Hawkbill embarked two Navy and five civilian scientists – and a wide variety of experimental equipment and special measurement systems – for collecting data on the physical and chemical properties of Arctic sea water, mapping the ocean bottom, and measuring ice thickness.
