Captain Bob Lineberry, outgoing Continuing Promise 2009 Mission Commander:
It has been an honor to be the Mission Commander for CONTINUING PROMISE 09, the men and women of the incredibly gratifying mission have been absolutely dedicated to bring these essential healthcare services to thousands who are in need.
Over the past five countries our international humanitarian team onboard COMFORT has provide essential healthcare to over 60,000 individuals who might have never had access to such services. They have done this with an unbelievable dedication and passion for the past 2 ½ months, only stopping to consider what else might be done to help those in need. I have a new appreciation for those that serve to bring healthcare to others and to those that give without want, our humanitarian organizations that we have been fortunate to team with during CP09. Continuing Promise has provided us with an excellent opportunity for all our team mates to participate in building relationships, strengthen partnerships and help bring security and prosperity to others in the Americas.
My relief, CAPT Tom Negus is a good friend and outstanding leader that will continue the promise, bring hope and reassure our strong commitment to partners and friends as we face challenges together. I thank you all for your wonderful support and God Bless!
