Sierra Leone
This photo was taken on May 3, 1992 in Sierra Leone. We were being evacuated from Sierra Leone due to a military coup which took place in the capital of Freetown on April 29, 1992. Volunteers were gathered and we were evacuated to Dakar, Senegal. In this photo are Peace Corps Volunteers (right to left) John, Richard, Raja, and Alan huddle together in the airplane unsure what was going to happen next, and with high hopes in returning back to the country.
