In addition to USJFCOM’s JPASE and JDT teams, a team from the Joint Communication Support Element is on the ground in Haiti. All military communications in the country are going through the JCSE, making them a necessity in helping USSOUTHCOM conduction relief efforts to the earthquake-ravaged country.

In addition to our JDT in Haiti, USJFCOM’s JECC has also sent members of JPASE to help U.S. and Haitian media cover the relief efforts in country.

Seven team members are supporting USSOUTHCOM’s effort, with five in Haiti and two assisting back in Miami.

JPASE command sergeant major, Army Sgt. Maj. Jose Velasquez, in part of the team deployed to Haiti. He said the team is focused on the task at hand, as are all U.S. military members supporting relief efforts.

“We came here to do a job and that’s to take care of the Haitian people. That’s number one.”
