From the Philippine News Agency (Nov 28): AFP Reserve Command helps in ongoing 'Yolanda' relief efforts

Members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Reserve Command (AFPRESCOM) distributed two truckloads of relief goods to "Yolanda" devastated residents of Quinapondan town, Eastern Samar Thursday afternoon.

Lt. Col. Abraham Bayan, AFPRESCOM 1st Technical Services Administration Battalion commander, said that these relief goods consist of clothing, blankets and medicines.

He added that these items were sourced from the AFPRESCOM, television network GMA-7 and a Japanese relief agency "AMDA".

Bayan, a doctor by profession, arrived with eight other APFRESCOM members early this week.

He added that the relief items were transported to Eastern Samar via a Royal Australian Air Force C-130.

Bayan said that this relief run is their second run for the month.
