Captain Ericson commanded the 15th Airlift Wing C-17 from Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii, which delivered humanitarian supplies to the Shanghai International Airport. Thirteenth Air Force's 613th Air and Space Operations Center Air Mobility Division at Hickam AFB coordinated the delivery of 225,890 pounds of relief supplies to Shanghai within 18 hours of Secretary of Defense approval. Recently, 19 Chinese provinces experienced the most severe winter storms in 50 years, imposing severe hardships on millions of Chinese citizens. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Anthony J. DeCapite)
