    COLOMBIA (Nov. 22, 2020) -- A U.S. Air Force C-130 transported 68 Colombian Army Soldiers to the Colombian island of San Andrés to support post-Hurricane Iota lifesaving and disaster-relief operations in the nearby Colombian island of Providencia. The plane transported the troops from Cartagena, Colombia, along with 40,000 pounds of food and water. The C-130, from the 317th Air Wing, Dyess Air Force Base, Texas, complements U.S. Southern Command’s ongoing support of United States Agency for International Development (USAID)-led foreign disaster assistance to countries impacted by a succession of devastating hurricanes.
