Blogging: U.S. Military Relief Efforts Haiti

Dispatch from an Airman in Haiti — Team Efforts

Chief Master Sergeant Tyler Foster is the Air Force Special Operations Command Public Affairs deployed chief of operations at the Troussaint Louverture International Airport in Port au Prince, Haiti. He and his team are supporting U.S. Southern Command relief efforts in the wake of the Jan. 12 earthquake that devastated the nation.


A cut from one of his posts:

“Normally, this airport handles about 35 aircraft per day. Last Saturday, we managed about 240,” Foster writes. “For you math whizzes out there, that’s one aircraft every 6 minutes.” >>>>>
