Airman 1st Class Carla Percy (left) listens to her hand held radio as Capt. John Groff uses a laptop computer to fill out airflow plans in a make shift office at the Libreville International Airport, Republic of Gabon, on March 26, 1997. Command and support elements for a forward joint task force and other enabling elements are deploying to locations in several West African countries as part of contingency planning for a possible future evacuation from Zaire. The deployment is an enhancement to planning for contingency measures to ensure the security of U.S. citizens in Zaire if an evacuation should become necessary. Percy and Groff are deployed from the 621st Air Mobility Control Squadron.
