Hurricane Beryl Aftermath: BDF Coast Guard Delivers Aid & Brings Troops Home 🇧🇧🚢🌪️ |BGIS News Extra

In this News Extra: Special Edition, we revisit a critical regional mission led by the Barbados Defence Force Coast Guard in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl. In September 2024, the BDF Coast Guard deployed to several hurricane-affected islands — including Grenada, Union Island, Carriacou, and St. Vincent — to deliver relief supplies and transport Regional Security System (RSS) troops home from Saint Lucia. Through firsthand accounts from the ship’s commander, navigation officers, young reservists, and civilians on the ground, this special episode explores the emotional and operational impact of the mission — and how it continues to shape disaster preparedness for the Caribbean. 🌊 One region. One response. One future. — Chapters 00:00 – Opening 00:47 – The Call to Duty 02:15 – The Journey 05:07 – On the Ground 10:15 – Looking Ahead — Produced by: Barbados Government Information Service (Mikul Elcock, Aisha Reid & Andre Olton) Featuring: Barbados Defence Force Coast Guard, Regional Security System #HurricaneBeryl #BDF #CaribbeanStrong #DisasterResponse #NewsExtra #BarbadosCoastGuard #RegionalSecuritySystem ************************************************************************************* See more by visiting our website - gisbarbados.gov.bb or Facebook page - facebook.com/gisbarbados or see us on Instagram - instagram.com/gisbarbados or hear us on Soundcloud - soundcloud.com/gisbarbados Make sure to subscribe to our channel so you will always be updated on Government Information and click the bell so you will be notified when a new video is uploaded.
