Nakasuk



Nakasuk (Inuktitut syllabics: ᓇᑲᓱᒃ) was an Inuk who was born at a sealing camp near Pangnirtung, Nunavut in the early 20th century and grew up around Kimmirut (formerly Lake Harbour). He assisted a US Navy party wintering on Baffin Island during the 1941-1942 winter to find a suitable location for a US air base.
