As of 19JUL2021, more than 150, and almost 1-thousand-3-hundred missing or unaccounted for after a devastating flood along the German-Belgian border.

Three months worth of rain fell in just three days, causing all the rivers to flood. Yet personnel on a U.S. air base knew it was coming: “We knew the rain was coming so we were preparing to secure the base, which we did…. ….Our fence extends past this whole base. They are our neighbors. So if they are in need, whether it’s fire, whether it’s flooding, whatever happens, were are just here 24/7.”-Technical Sergeant Isaac Brenyah, 52nd Civil Engineer Squadron, Spangdahlem Air Base

About 1-thousand-8-hundred sandbags were delivered to the communities of Binsfeld and Neiderkail. It wasn’t just the 52nd CES that responded: “People came out to support and I have no clue what squadron or flight they belonged to because they were in civilian clothes, but I just want to give a big shout out to everyone.”-Technical Sergeant Isaac Brenyah, 52nd Civil Engineer Squadron

“Everything was blocked off, so we only met those who were coming into the emergency shelter. They were in a daze. One gentleman had to leave his house so fast he was only wearing his underwear. He didn’t have time to grab any other clothing.”-Christoph Himbert, firefighter with Baumholder Military Community
So far it has been only small German towns that have asked for help from the U.S. military, the state of Rheinland-Pfalz has not officially requested aid from the U.S. Air Force/Army, so far.
