JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska - Alaska Army National Guard Chief Warrant Officer 2 Morgan Osborn, left, a UH-60L Black Hawk pilot with the 207th Aviation Troop Command greets local resident, Nick Therchik, after delivering thousands of pounds of frozen meat during an Innovative Readiness Training mission at Toksook Bay, Alaska, Nov. 18, 2024. Two years ago, the community of Toksook Bay, whose population is almost entirely members of the Alaska Native Nunakauyarmiut Tribe living a subsistence lifestyle, lost thousands of pounds of meat that spoiled due to extended power outages caused by Typhoon Merbok flooding. At the request of the Tribe and through the IRT program, the Alaska National Guard transported nearly 14,000 pounds of frozen beef, chicken and pork from JBER to Bethel and then onto the community of Toksook Bay.
