U.S. Marines with Joint Task Force - Leeward Islands
Summary
U.S. Marines with Joint Task Force - Leeward Islands unload the parts for a Lightweight Water Purification System from a box truck at a water purification site on Saint Martin, Sept. 14, 2017. The system allows the Marines to purify approximately 1,800 gallons of water a day in order to supply communities on the island affected by Hurricane Irma. At the request of partner nations, JTF-LI deployed aircraft and service members to areas in the eastern Caribbean Sea affected by Hurricane Irma. The task force is a U.S. military unit composed of Marines, Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen, and represents U.S. Southern Command’s primary response to Hurricane Irma. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt.
