Bundles descend from a U.S. Air Force C-130J Super Hercules assigned to the 36th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron at Ulithi, Federated States of Micronesia, Dec. 4, 2022. Loadmasters from the 36 EAS prepared and trained for the safe delivery of each bundle, with many of the bundles weighing over 300 pounds. The aircraft, call sign Santa 11, delivered 14 bundles to the eastern Caroline Islands, included Asor, Falalop, and Fais islands. OCD is the longest-running Department of Defense humanitarian and disaster relief mission. Each year, the USAF partners with countries in the Pacific Air Forces area of responsibility to deliver supplies to remote islands in the South-Eastern Pacific.
