A petty officer of the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit (special operations capable) gives a stuffed animal to a patient after being medically treated in Sarankhola, Bangladesh. The amphibious assault ship USS Kearsarge (LHD 3) and the embarked 22nd MEU (SOC) are conducting humanitarian assistance/disaster relief efforts in response to the government of Bangladesh's request for assistance after tropical cyclone Sidr struck their southern coast, Nov. 15. The storm killed over 3,000 people and has left several hundred thousand homeless. The Department of Defense effort is part of a larger United States response coordinated by the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development.
