US Military Given order to Forces Armées d'Haïti, FAd'H
Here is a picture of US Military giving order to Forces Armées d'Haïti, FAd'H. The Haitian Military force was disbanded by Former Haitian President Jean Bertrand Aristide
On December 2011, President Martelly took some steps to rebuild the military forces abolished in 1995. He appointed a special commission who consulted international and domestic experts to develop a blueprint. On May 2012, the committee submitted a detailed report on the requirement of human and financial resources with the creation of a Ministry of Defense. On September 17, 2013, the effort took a shape when Jean-Rodolphe Joazile, the Haitian Defense Minister greeted the first 41 members of the new armed forces (all fresh high school graduates) on their return from 8 months training in Ecuador. After their comeback, they worked on road construction and other public service projects in central Haiti with the Ecuadoran military engineers for three months. Thirty of them were soldiers, ten engineers and one officer; they were accountable to the Ministry of Defense but not authorized to carry any gun or weapon immediately for the next three to four years until they are permitted to carry such either on government finance or from own resources.
President Martelly has an initial plan to build a primary force of 3,500 soldiers who will patrol the border and operate during the time of crisis. This will create many job opportunities for the young, as well. His government is considering to build a fund of $95 million to train and equip the new forces so that they can effectively replace 12, 000 U.N. Peacekeepers presently stationed in the country.
However, Jocelyn McCalla, a Haiti-born political observer has remarked that the country would be better served by creating a job program. Because an army is the last thing that Haiti needs at this point.

Haiti is a country without any regular devoted military forces. The last formal armed forces were demobilized in 1995. Haiti's first military was born in the bed of country's slave revolution. The early Haitian leaders emerged from military cadres produced by decade (1791-1804) long warfare which was fundamentally a slave revolt to expel the French out of their colony in Saint-Domingue. Haiti without a strong constitution, had been mostly ruled by force. After the expulsion of the French, the amalgamated armed force got broken down into pieces and took coercive control in every aspect of Haitian governance without any acceptable constitution. In 1987, a decree recommended the formation of a Haitian armed forces, however, that was never properly implemented till 1989 and the crude built up that came out was finally abolished in 1995. Practically, Haiti has no present external threats other than the occasional tension with its neighbor Dominican Republic over a border fixed in 1936. The presence of U.S. military in Haiti is enough to stall attack on the country.
Terrorism and Military Occupation in Haiti by United Nations, MINUSTAH
For the past 10 years, with their occupancy in Haiti since 2004, the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) has maintained a reign of terror. An Intergovernmental body created for promoting human rights and maintaining peace sounds more like tyrannical to Haitians. The troop first arrived in June 2004, just one month after Aristide's kidnapping. One of its first act was to support the illegal administration that followed the coup. Haitians are never satisfied with the MINUSTAH. There are many reasons for their dislike. Some of which include: (1) MINUSTAH people continually harass and humiliate Haitians; (2) They enjoy immunity from prosecution; (3) They often sabotage democracy and electoral processes for own interest; (4) Interferes in Haiti's political affairs; (5) They were ineffective, cowardice and hardly cooperative during the earthquake emergencies; (6) Carriers of many contagious diseases; (7) The presence of UN troop on Haitian soil is illegal.
U.S. Sponsored Corps d’Aviation d’Haiti finally Fizzles
What you are looking at is an old Military airplane from Corps d'Aviation d'Haiti.
In 1943 Corps d'Aviation d'Haiti was established with an air base at the Haitian Air Force field. The U.S. sent training aircraft F-51D Mustangs and F-48D-40s.
Fighter aircraft was updated as necessary, but Presidents Estime and Magloire took advantage of the air power the U.S. gave it and used it during coup d'etats.
The U.S. suspended use of its aircraft during certain of these periods. In 1994 the Corps d'Aviation d'Haiti was dissolved when the UN arrived.
Filipino Peacekeeping Contingent from Haiti with MINUSTAH
One hundred and thirty three members of the 17th Philippine peacekeeping contingent stationed in Haiti since last October have left the country to their base. The Philippine Chief of Army Staff Gregorio Catapang Jr, personally has welcomed his men, consisting 8 officers and 125 enlisted personnel, in a simple ceremony held at the Villamor Airbase in Pasay City, on the north of the City of Manila. Marineth Domingo, the Chief of Philippine Navy Public Affairs, has said that these 157 soldiers who were sent to Haiti in October 2013, had earlier faced situations of diverse armed conflicts over a period of a decade and a devastating earthquake in 2010. They went to Haiti as a part of U.N peacekeeping mission and served as evaluator on the effectiveness of security network (perimeter security forces) to the Force Headquarters of the UN Mission to Haiti. They have provided logistic, administrative, clerical and technical supports. Out of the 157 Filipino solders sent last year under United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) program, 24 have remained in Haiti to train a new batch of 157 Filipino soldiers composed of Navy and Marine personnel who left the Villamor Air Base in Pasay City on September 22, aboard an UN chartered plane for Haiti. The new batch will provide perimeter security, clerical, administrative and logistical services and security to VIP personalities.
On March 2012, the United Nations had awarded "peacekeeping medals" to Philippine soldiers and police officers serving in Haiti in recognition of their dedication and sacrifice in defending the cause of peace.
