US Veterans Push Forward With Disaster Recovery in Jamaica After Hurricane Melissa

‘It’s catastrophic,’ Josh Gill told The Epoch Times. ’There’s not a word in my vocabulary that I can use that describes this level of destruction.’

Former Green Beret Jeremy Locke returned to Kingston, Jamaica, around 6 a.m. on Nov. 6, in an ongoing effort to bring humanitarian aid to survivors of Hurricane Melissa.

The co-founder and COO of Aerial Recovery and his team of volunteers spent the entire night blazing a trail through the mountainous, hurricane-ravaged parishes of western Jamaica to establish contact and deliver drinking water to a small convent of nuns and a home for children with special needs.
