Soundbite: Alaska Army National Guard Chief Warrant Officer 3 Colten Bell, a UH-60 Black Hawk pilot assigned to Golf Company, 2nd Battalion, 211th General Aviation Support Battalion, A-Roll
Description: Alaska Army National Guardsmen deliver thousands of pounds of frozen meat aboard two UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters during an Innovative Readiness Training mission at Toksook Bay, Alaska, Nov. 18, 2024. Two years ago, the community of Toksook Bay, whose population is almost entirely members of the Alaska Native Nunakauyarmiut Tribe living a subsistence lifestyle, lost thousands of pounds of meat that spoiled due to extended power outages caused by Typhoon Merbok flooding. At the request of the Tribe and through the IRT program, the Alaska National Guard transported nearly 14,000 pounds of frozen beef, chicken and pork from JBER to Bethel and then onto the community of Toksook Bay.
