Hello All-
On Wednesday,8 April, members of the 8th SOS from Hurlburt Field flew CV-22's to Honduras in support of humanitarian assistance for Puerto Limpera, which is the northeastern state of Gracias A Dios. The CV-22's carried hospital beds, non-perishable food and school supplies. The effort was coordinated between Ken's office and Hurlburt's deployed SOS. Members of the Honduran Air Force assisted in loading the items. The beds were donated by a private company in the US and the non-perishable food was bought by the Italian Government.
The photo of Ken also includes Lt. Col Darryl Sheets / 8th SOS, Bill Brands / USAID Directot and Simon Henshaw / Deputy Chief of Mission, US Embassy
Also, in the montage you will see a building with the USMILGP logo on it which happened to be Col Oliver North's diggs when he was here during Iran Contra......pretty cool, huh?
