 Flights carrying more than 450 evacuees and vulnerable Afghan populations from Afghanistan arrived at Naval Station Road August 27th in support of Operation Allies Refuge. We can't express how proud we are to take part in what is our nation's highest priority mission right now and that is to provide safety, shelter, food and conduct administrative processing to enable further transit to their ultimate destination for these people. I don't think we'll ever be able to express the full amount of gratitude that we have for our entire community and our Spanish hosts who have all pitched in to enable this very important mission. But probably the best sign of gratitude is displayed in the eyes of the people who arrived today when they realize that they're finally in a place of safety and security. These evacuees arrived on the United States Air Force C-17 Glove Master 3 from Kuwait International Airport.
