Two charter planes carried more Salvation Army personnel and cargo to Haiti’s disaster zone Friday and supplies are being distributed now on a limited basis.
Photos of the latest team led by Major Busroe can be viewed here: Picasa Web Album: The Salvation Army Departs. These were taken as they departed Ft. Lauderdale for Haiti early Friday morning.
Major Busroe’s team is in addition to Major Louden’s initial assessment team that landed in Cape Haitien yesterday and drove eight hours to Port-au-Prince.
Major Louden and Salvation Army planes will be returning to Ft. Lauderdale, FL, this morning to restock and deliver more personnel and supplies as soon as possible. Two Haitian women who were working as missionaries and lost their homes are also on board the plane to will meet up with family in south Florida.
