Air Mobility Brings Forces To Haiti

Air Mobility Brings Forces To Haiti President George W. Bush ordered US Marines into the Republic of Haiti on 29 February. The Marines were the lead element of a multinational peacekeeping force sanctioned by the United Nations after former Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide left office. Active and reserve crews flying C-5, C-141, C-130, and other Air Mobility Command aircraft initially delivered more than 2,000 Marines into Haiti's capital of Port-au-Prince. As of 5 March, more than 1,210 short tons of cargo had been delivered on thirty-seven missions. The US Coast Guard later supported the Haiti operation by taking a seaport security team and its supplies into Port-au-Prince on board one of its new HC-130J transports.
