Haiti

Long time no post. A continuing trend, and I apologize. I am currently off the coast of North Carolina, en route to Haiti aboard the USS Bataan, along with the 22 MEU. We are headed to the island nation to assist with Humanitarian efforts in response to a catastrophic earthquake that shook the island apart, leaving a people already stricken with poverty, further destitute and desperate.

As of know, I have no idea what exactly type of assistance we will provide, however this ship has the capability of creating it's own fresh water supply, a complete and competent medical team, and an entire crew of sailors and marines willing to do whatever we can to ensure that help reaches these people.

I will update this as time passes, but unfortunately over leave, I have currently misplaced my personal camera. However I will use photos from other sources. Keep in mind that the pictures may tend to be on the more graphic side, but I will limit the amount of death shown. I do not if I will be boots on the ground or stay on the ship, assisting others from the coast, but I will do my best helping out in this time of crisis.

Good to be back with something to post about.
