Caption:
This image was one of many captured by Lt. Cmdr. Gary Brunette, a U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) officer, who had been deployed to the Caribbean nation of Haiti, shortly after the country’s earthquake in January 2010. This was a common scene inside one of the country’s internal displaced persons (IDP) camps, which depicted some of the improvised shelters, constructed using corrugated metal roofing, and cinder blocks. Transported to Haiti by way of the naval vessel, the USS Bataan, Lt. Cmdr. Brunette, along with the rest of the involved USPHS crew, set out in early January 2010, to provide disaster relief support to Operation Unified Response (OUR).
