Between Oct. 10-18, the Alaska Organized Militia, composed of the Alaska National Guard, Alaska State Defense Force and Alaska Naval Militia, alongside partner agencies, conducted the largest airlift operations in Alaska history, transporting hundreds of storm survivors from Western Alaska to safety following the devastating 2025 West Coast Storm. In coordination with the State Emergency Operations Center and local officials, AKOM members continue supporting response and recovery operations through airlift, sheltering, and sustainment missions across the affected regions.
