    U.S. Airborne soldiers walk through a makeshift camp at a golf course in Port-au-Prince January 24, 2010. A magnitude-7 earthquake struck Haiti on January 12, killing up to 200,000 and leaving as many as 3 million hurt or homeless and pleading for medical aid, food and water in nightmarish conditions in the Western Hemisphere's poorest country. The U.S. military contingent has been flying in supplies, evacuating the seriously wounded and protecting aid distribution points since the day after the quake.
