Description
English: Retired U.S. Air Force Col. Gail Halversen delivers the keynote address at the May 19, 2009, dedication of the Pentagon's newest display corridor - The Humanitarian Relief Corridor. Halversen became known to the children of Berlin as the "Candy Bomber," during the 1948-49 Berlin Airlift for dropping candy-laden parachutes to them. In addition to a display of Berlin Airlift artifacts, the corridor documents military participation in other humanitarian relief missions such as the Mount Pinatubo volcanic eruption in 1991, the Yellowstone forest fire in 1988, Hurricane Camille in 1969, and the evacuation of refugees from Saigon in 1975.
