An Italian "bersagliere," who assisted in recovering Vajont Dam disaster victims, speaks to Lt. Col. Leah Sanchez about the disaster that occurred 60 years ago. On October 9th, 1963, a mega-tsunami at the Vajont Dam caused by landslides resulted in one of the worst man-made disasters in history. SETAF-AF provided the first helicopters to assist with recovery efforts, as well as medical supplies and personnel. (U.S. Army photo by 1st. Lt. Katherine Sibilla)
