Minot Airmen continue North Dakota flood support

March 30th, 2009
Two Air Force helicopters relocated from the Bismarck, N.D., flood area to Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D., March 27 in support of flood relief efforts along the Red River.

Officials from the 91st Missile Wing from Minot AFB sent two hoist-equipped UH-1N Hueys from the 54th Helicopter Squadron to Bismarck March 25 to assist with flood relief there as the Missouri River continued to rise. 

An ice jam added to the problems in that area, and 54th HS members were called upon to support efforts to break it up, and now stand ready where they will perform search and rescue and other support missions if called upon.
