 A Coast Guard C-130 air crew from Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater transferred about 47 British troops from Bermuda to Grand Turk. The British troops were sent to Grand Turk to help aid in hurricane relief efforts. Several British troops lined up at the airport in Bermuda to weigh their baggage before boarding the Coast Guard C-130 to deploy. After crew members from Air Station Clearwater met with the troops, they helped load several thousand pounds of the troops' luggage and equipment on board the C-130. It was rewarding to assist a foreign country provide aid to another country in a time of need.
