Raw Account of Relief Operations from the Frontlines in Port Au Prince, Haiti
Sunday, 17 January 2010

From Bridge Foundation’s advance team led by Jon Pageler and Barry Brown.

Very long day. Made much longer by the fact that oversized military craft were idling next to us all night.  Not just idling, but since things were moving so fast they never powered down. Some of the guys found an open door to the jetway so we built our fort with the remaining bags of rice under and slept there. They seemed much more rested than us. They are sleeping there now.

Most of the 20 some tons of food and 'Ensure' from our first airlift have been distributed. The remaining 50kg bags of rice and beans will go the University Hospital and one or two other places today. The orphanage where the first shipment went seems to be doing well.
