HAITI, JANUARY 2010: A girl hides her face behind the tin wall of just one dwelling In a 5000-person camp we found in Petion-Ville that, at the time, had not yet been discovered. I took this while standing on the pick-up bed of a humvee, while an intel recon team of Rangers and doctors from the 1st-73rd Airborne Cav., 2nd BCT, 82nd Airborne assessed vital medical, food and humanitarian needs at the massive tent city.
