An active duty crew from the 38th Airlift Squadron along with crews from the Air Force Reserve Command deployed to Ramstein AB, Germany, in early September to deliver more than twenty-seven tons of medical supplies to victims of the terrorist attack in Vladikavkaz, Russia. The deployment was part of the humanitarian response to the siege at the elementary school in Beslan that claimed more than 300 lives, most of whom were children. C-130Es from active duty squadrons delivered an EKG unit, surgical equipment, burn dressing kits, clinical chemistry analyzers, blood gas analyzers, and portable X-ray systems, as well as antibiotics, sheets, blankets, and other medical supplies.
