CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters with Joint Task Force


Three CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters with Joint Task Force - Leeward Islands move down the flight line as they prepare for departure at Muñiz Air National Guard Base, Carolina, Puerto Rico, Sept. 23, 2017. The service members are relocating to Martinique and Guadeloupe to better support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations in Dominica, after Hurricane Maria struck the Caribbean country. At the request of partner nations and the Agency for International Development, JTF-LI deployed aircraft and service members to areas in the eastern Caribbean Sea affected by hurricanes Irma and Maria. The task force is a military unit composed of Marines, Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen, and represents Southern Command’s primary response to both disasters. ( Marine Corps photo by Sgt.
