Two UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters and 13 Soldiers assigned to a Lincoln-based Nebraska Army National Guard aviation unit mobilize, Sept. 13, 2018, in support of the Hurricane Florence relief operations after approval by Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts earlier in the day. The Company G, 2-104th General Support Aviation Battalion Soldiers departed from the Army Aviation Support Facility No. 1 in Lincoln and are expected to pre-stage in Tennessee until the hurricane makes landfall. Once weather permits, the crews will move into North Carolina to begin assisting in any needed relief operations. The helicopters and crews are equipped and trained to conduct search and rescue operations, as well as air movement missions. The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency arranged the sharing of resources through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact which is the nation’s state-to-state mutual aid system.
