B-roll stringer of Aerial Port Airmen from Nevada ANG’s 152nd Airlift Wing, Wisconsin ANG’s 128th Air Refueling Wing, Connecticut ANG’s 103rd Airlift Wing, Alaska ANG’s 176th Airlift Wing and the Puerto Rico ANG’s 156th Airlift Wing working together to load 18 pallets of U.S. mail on trucks for the United States Postal Service at Muñiz Air National Guard Base, Puerto Rico, Oct. 20. The PRANG served as a staging area for 18 pallets of U.S. mail transported on a C-17 aircraft from the Tennessee ANG’s 164th Airlift Wing. Power outages and a large influx of care packages and relief items from around the world in support of the 3.4 million U.S. citizens have quadrupled the average volume of mail destined to the Caribbean island still in recovery after Hurricane Maria.
