“They are happy we are here,” said Lance Cpl. John Her- cules, translator for the 22nd MEU and native of Port-au- Prince, Haiti. “Some of them haven’t eaten since yesterday or three days ago. They appreciate the U.S. Marines com- ing and trying to help them.” The distribution point in Cotes de Fer was established for the day, and the Marines from weapons company were extracted back to the USS Bataan in the afternoon. Cotes de Fer is the second distribution point opened by the Ma- rines from the 22nd MEU in three days. The fi rst location in Leogane, Haiti, west of the capitol of Port-au-Prince, was opened Jan. 19, just four days after the 22nd MEU and the Bataan Amphibious Assault Group deployed to join the re- lief. The ships of the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group and embarked elements of the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit arrived off the coast of Haiti, Jan. 18, to provide humanitar- ian assistance and disaster relief for earthquake survivors and bolster relief operations already underway in support of Operation Unifi ed Response. This sea-based force will bring added capabilities to aid the relief efforts without taxing the already strained infra- structure ashore. Comprised of heavy-lift and utility heli- copters, trucks and Humvees, assault amphibian vehicles and logistics capabilities to include water purifi cation and limited medical support, the 22nd MEU will further en- hance the humanitarian relief efforts ashore.
