Description
English: Soldiers and airmen of the New Jersey Counter Drug Task Force, New Jersey National Guard, presented gift cards to children from the Somerset Home for Temporarily Displaced Children during a visit at George Walker Field near Somerset, N.J., Dec. 11, 2012. The children, most whom are between the ages of 13-17 and are transitioning from an abusive environment or are between foster care. Chief Warrant Officer 4 Jim O'Connor came up with the idea when his sister, who works at the home as a social worker, suggested that some of the children could use some help in getting their lives started after they leave the home. The soldiers and airmen were airlifted on UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters from the 1-150th Assault Helicopter Battalion, New Jersey Army National Guard, to Walker Field. Counter Drug's mission is to reduce the supply and demand for illegal drugs through partnerships with law enforcement agencies, community organizations and school districts.
