Heroes of the 106th Rescue Wing
Over the last two weeks, the men and women of the 106th Rescue Wing on Long Island have rescued more than 2,100 people in the wake of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Days after returning from Texas where they airlifted hundreds from flood waters, many of the Air Guardsman redeployed to the Caribbean days later to conduct search and rescues on St. Martin and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
