Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany (May 22, 2022): When America’s moms faced a dire infant formula shortage, the American military swung into action. This crisis presents a unique opportunity for American servicemembers to do good for the nation.
The U.S. Department of Health and the Department of Health and Human Services have requested the Department of Defense to rapidly transport infant formula to the United States to help alleviate these shortages. In this photo by Airmen 1st Class Jared Lovett, Airmen from the 721st Aerial Port Squadron load a pallet of infant formula onto a C-17 Globemaster III aircraft assigned to Pearl Harbor-Hickam Airfield, Hawaii, at Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany. The formula arrived from Switzerland as part of the U.S. Government’s Operation Fly Formula program.
American servicemembers are there when we need them. These airmen enjoyed helping America’s moms and we should be proud of their performance. How can WE be there when they need us?
