U.S. MILITARY TOPS 5,000 MILESTONE TWICE

U.S. Disaster Assistance Center Pakistan – U.S. military aviation and medical units both exceeded a 5,000 milestone in the last two days here while supporting Pakistani-led earthquake relief efforts.

U.S. helicopters reached the first milestone on Dec. 3 when the total aid they have delivered topped more than 5,000 tons. The second milestone was reached by the U.S. hospital in Muzaffarabad when the 5,000th patient walked through their doors on Dec.4.

Approximately 300 U.S. Army soldiers and 16 CH-47 Chinook helicopters comprise Task Force Eagle which took over the aviation mission of delivering relief aid here on Nov. 4 from a previous task force that returned to Afghanistan. The U.S. began flying humanitarian aid on Oct. 11 - three days after the 7.6 magnitude earthquake devastated the Kashmir and Northwest Frontier Provinces.

The 212th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital is manned by approximately 200 U.S. Army soldiers and began seeing patients on Oct. 25. The facility is capable of performing simultaneous surgeries and has a capacity of 24 intensive care unit beds with 60 additional beds for patients needing less in-patient monitoring.

Task Force Eagle and the 212th MASH make up a portion of the nearly 1,000 U.S. military members assigned to the Disaster Assistance Center Pakistan to provide aviation, medical and engineering support to the Government of Pakistan.

Wow! Or men and women in uniform were able to save more than 5000 people and provide more than 5000 tons of aid, yet I didn't here these big numbers anywhere in the main stream media, or should it be as I heard somewhere else, Meida supporting murderers?

Thanx to the Internet I have been more informed on many things around the world and I have grown a great interest in reading (something I lacked while in school) and so have made my knowledge of many things grow.

It is sad to think that the word news seems to be 85% more associated with bad things. Stories like kids who do great things for others, people who do heroric things, the little big of good that happens after a disaster, etc get obscured by the constant Govt stories.

Thanx for pointing out the good stuff that still happen around the world.

Such a good article, of course we didn't hear it from the ghouls in the MSM.. Of course Sevendedalus and other braindead liberals miss the point completely.
The more I see from the MSM, the more I see that the only thing they care about is how they can undermine the U.S. as a nation. They can all rot in the stinking cesspool they've made of their insiginificant little existances. I'd say what happened to the victims in Pakistan happened to the wrong people.

Congratulations to all the men and women of Task Force Eagle!

If that's all you got out of this article, shame on your very soul.
