Driscoll Glacier is a glacier 13 nautical miles long in the Heritage Range of Antarctica, draining southeast between the Collier Hills and the Buchanan Hills to enter Union Glacier. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photographs taken between 1961 and 1966, and it was named for Commander Jerome M. Driscoll, an administration officer with U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 during Operation Deep Freeze in 1965.
