New York Air National Guardsmen at the Eastern Air Defense Sector in Rome addressed a face mask shortage in mid-March by taking matters into their own hands. Faced with an inadequate supply of masks, unit members bought their own cloth and sewed the masks themselves. On the left, the 224th Air Defense Group's Maj. Robert Winston manned the sewing machine while Staff Sgt. Jordan Jarecki cut and prepared the cloth for sewing. The 224th ADG provides the forces for EADS, which is responsible for the air defense of the eastern U.S.
