Haitian children look on as U.S. service members from the amphibious dock landing ship USS Carter Hall arrive on the shoreline outside of Port-au-Prince while surveying the area for the best access point. Haitian citizens have been placing toothpaste under their noses to block the stench in the air. Carter Hall is on station in Haiti supporting Operation Unified Response, a joint operation providing military support capabilities to civil authorities to help stabilize and improve the situation in Haiti following a 7.0 magnitude earthquake that devastated the island nation Jan. 12, 2010.
