George Binney

Sir George Binney (DSO) (1900–1972) was a noted arctic explorer and Royal Naval Reserve commander. During World War II, he led or was involved in efforts, including Operation Rubble, to procure supplies of Swedish ball bearings for Britain.〔Obituary: Sir George Binney, DSO,''The Geographical Journal'' Vol. 139, No. 1 (Feb., 1973), pp. 199–201〕〔Barker, Ralph (2005) The Blockade Busters: Cheating Hitler’s Reich Of Vital War Supplies, Pen & Sword Books Ltd〕〔(Coastal Forces Heritage Trust (2010) The Coastal Forces Heritage Trust: Incorporating The Coastal Forces Veterans, Newsletter issue 6, May 2010 ) (Accessed July 2011)〕〔Polar Record (1973) Obituary: Sir George Binney, Kt, DSO, ''Polar Record'', Vol 16, No 104, p 753–58〕
==Arctic exploration==
Whilst still an undergraduate (Merton College, Oxford) Binney organized and was secretary to the 1921 Oxford University Spitsbergen expedition, subsequently leading both the 1923 Merton College Arctic Expedition, and the 1924 Oxford University Arctic Expedition. He was a pioneer in the use of seaplanes for Arctic survey work and wrote up this experience in his 1925 book ''With Seaplane and Sledge in the Arctic''. The Avro 504 seaplane used was supplied by A. V. Roe and Co., Ltd. and its 180-h.p. Lynx air-cooled engine provided by Armstrong-Siddeley. (For ''The Avro Arctic'' see The Avro 504O). He was awarded the Royal Geographical Society's Back Award in 1927.
Subsequent to these expeditions he worked in the arctic for the Hudson's Bay Company (1926–1930). During this time he wrote ''The Eskimo Book of Knowledge'' (published by the Hudson's Bay Company), a book explaining a rather colonial view of the wider world to the Inuit.〔(The Papers of Sir George Binney,University of Cambridge ) (Accessed July 2011)〕
