Brooks Point
Brooks Point is a small rock headland on the west shore of Vincennes Bay, about west-northwest of Mallory Point. This feature was first mapped from air photos taken by U.S. [Navy Operation Highjump], 1946–47. It was named by the Advisory [Committee on Antarctic Names] for John Brooks, a seaman on the United [States Exploring Expedition] flagship USS Vincennes under Charles Wilkes, 1838–42. This 1972 naming resolves the problem raised by displacement of the name "Brooks Island".
