U.S. Marine Corps Pfc. Johvany Moize, a Brooklyn, New York native and machine gunner with 1st Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2d Marine Division, poses for a photo during Continuing Promise 2022 in Jeremie, Haiti, Dec. 17, 2022.
“It was around 2010 there was a big earthquake, and after the earthquake, the Marines came,” recalled Moize. “They gave us food, water, and helicopters came and gave us MREs. I saw that as an inspiration, and I want to help people too. When I came to America, one of my dreams was to become a Marine because of what they did for us when I was in Haiti.”
The Continuing Promise mission includes providing direct medical care and expeditionary veterinary care, conducting training and subject matter expert exchanges on various medical and humanitarian civic assistance topics, and leading seminars on Women, Peace, and Security.
