These men were dying,
yet they would not abandon the principles of their expedition. Its extraordinary by todays standards.

It is still the 17th of March, by Greenwich Mean Time. Scott has just posted, and has lost track of the exact date, but believes it to be the 17th. Therefore the delay in posting is consistent with the actual events.

Backfired a bit :( It still brings tears to my eyes when i read it though.

But I can´t stop, it´s interesting.
