On Caroline Islands Air to the Atoll of Pingelap

I was very fortunate to join Pohnpei State Governor Stevenson A. Joseph and First Lady, Dr. Aina Garstang on a 4 hour trip to Pingelap via Caroline Islands Air. The atoll was reporting severe drought conditions with no rainfall for several months. This trip was to assess the situation and was a good start to what would later be a damage assessment to the other outer islands of Pohnpei. The Governor was well received by the leadership and people of Pingelap. The mayor shared the Pingelap roots of Governor Joseph whose great-grandfather on his Father's side came from Pingelap. His relatives can still be found on the island.
