Dawn Arlotta, United States Public Health Service, prior to recieving a patient at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport in Columbia, S.C. Moffett and Arlotta were part of the Federal Coordinating Center Columbia team that was responsible for receiving patients evacuated in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria on flights from either Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands, evaluating the patients, and then setting them up with care at a local hospital. FCC Columbia, a team led by U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers, was the first Department of Defense team to be activated and recieve patients in history. (U.S. Army Reserve photo by Sgt. 1st Class Ryan C.
