Kuhn/Brosch Island

[edit]

The section about Kuhn/Brosch island was mixed up. Kuhn Island and Brosch Island are not different names for the same island, they are 2 separate islands, as can be seen on the map. Kuhn Island appears with that name in original maps of the Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition.[1] long before the Ziegler-Fiala Polar Expedition. The same is true for La Roncière Island.
