A soldier with the Philippine Army leads a family to an aircraft for transport to Manila at the Tacloban Air Field here, Nov. 15. Members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines spearheaded the relief efforts in Tacloban and surrounding areas by having disaster teams on-hand even before the super typhoon hit. Multi-national forces soon fell into supporting roles to the AFP, and one week later groups and military representatives from across the globe are aiding in relief efforts. The 3rd Marine Expeditionary Brigade is currently supporting the Armed Forces of the Philippines in providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief to areas affected by Super Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda.
