description

Summary

Col. John Ostrowsky, left, Humanitarian Assessment Survey Team officer in charge, holds a young child shortly after helping him into a vehicle in Lopburi, Thailand, Oct. 18. The HAST assisted affected Thai community members during their assessment of flood damage. The HAST, consisting of 10 Marines from III Marine Expeditionary Force, hold a conference to discuss the current situation of the flooding and relief efforts of the Royal Thai Armed Forces at the Royal Thai Armed Forces Headquarters in Bangkok Oct. 16. HAST is assessing damage caused by flooding in Thailand and the possible support III MEF could provide to the Royal Thai Armed Forces. III MEF regularly trains to respond to natural disasters during exercises held on Okinawa and throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The role of the Marine Corps during any humanitarian assistance and disaster response is to rapidly respond with critically needed capabilities to deliver assistance and relief areas requiring immediate aid.

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.
