Active duty, Reserve, and Guard service members share messages and give thanks to the people of Saipan and Tinian, Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, Dec. 5, 2018. After Super Typhoon Yutu hit the islands of Saipan and Tinian Oct. 24, several federal agencies immediately began a coordinated disaster response effort, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Defense and local government, to help the people of these islands recover. Some of the DOD forces used in the initial typhoon response have begun redeploying at the direction of FEMA, based on the needs of the local government. Other DOD forces will continue to remain in place performing other assigned operations, including the roofing mission.(U.S. Air Force video by Staff Sgt. Bethany La Ville) More
