Fier, Albania, 13 May 1999 — Two refugee children
watch as relief supplies are unloaded from U.S. Navy MH-53E Sea Dragon helicopters at Camp
Hope during Operation Sustain Hope. Sustain Hope is the U.S. effort to bring in food,
water, medicine, relief supplies, and to establish camps for the refugees fleeing from the
Former Republic of Yugoslavia. The Department of Defense has constructed Camp Hope to
house up to 20,000 refugees. The Sea Dragons are airlifting in supplies from the USS
Inchon (MCS 12) which is operating in the Adriatic Sea.
