Summary

A C-17 pilot with the 105th Airlift Wing (AW) waits while the aircraft is loaded at the 179th AW with a Disaster Relief Bed-down System (DRBS) from the 200th RED HORSE Squadron (RHS) October 10, 2017. This is the third trip the pilot has made in support of hurricane relief efforts to Puerto Rico. With the unique capabilities and assets the 200th RHS has as a self-sustaining unit that can deploy anywhere in the world within 72 hours, the unit is able to utilize its assets to support first responders and aid workers in the aftermath of the hurricane. The DRBS is a kit which provides basic life necessities such as shelter, latrines and showers and can support up to 300 people. The 200th RHS is always ready to respond with a team of trusted Airmen for state and federal missions. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by 1st Lt. Paul Stennett/Released)

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
