While conducting reconnaissance, the air crew indicated possible increased water levels, but the areas were deemed clear of any civilians in distress.
The crew of the CH-47 Chinook helicopter included eight of 14 Connecticut National Guard Soldiers currently operating out of the Florida National Guard’s Army Aviation Support Facility No. 1 in Jacksonville, Florida, in support of Hurricane Irma relief and recovery operations. The Connecticut National Guard has more than 40 Soldiers and Airmen who have been supporting hurricane relief efforts in Florida, Texas, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands over the past couple weeks.
