A crowd of women sit after a call for order during the distribution of humanitarian aid in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Jan. 19, 2010. When crowds become unruly, U.S. Army soldiers and volunteers stop handing out food and water, resuming after order returns. The 82nd Airborne's 1st Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, provided security for the distribution point out of its makeshift forward operating base. The soldiers distributed to only women during this event.
