U.S. airmen helped an Afghan woman give birth to a baby girl after going into labor during an evacuation flight en route to Germany, U.S. Air Mobility Command said.
The command said in a statement Saturday that the mother went into labor and began experiencing complications due to low blood pressure on board a flight from "an intermediate staging base in the Middle East." The C-17 aircraft commander decided to descend in altitude to increase air pressure, which the command said "helped stabilize and save the mother's life."
The plane landed at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, where airmen came aboard and helped deliver the baby in the cargo bay of the plane.
"The baby girl and mother were transported to a nearby medical facility and are in good condition," a command spokesperson said.
It was not clear when the woman departed Afghanistan.

Like hamsters.
Except hamsters are cute and adorable, these folks ain’t.
It screws up the manifest but its better than landing with one fewer passenger than you started out with....
Well, this is a warm story.

How very strange that the airmen went into labor....
Since the birth was on an American plane, the kid will get automatic American citizenship and a democrat registration card.
I guess the baby is now an American Citizen? Eyeroll.
“Airmen” came aboard?
Better would be “corpse-men”.

Would being on a US military aircraft, in flight, constitute giving that little 12th century savage Birthright Citizenship? I f*cking hope not. But who cares at this point.
Anchor baby! Yeah!
Why couldn’t Guantanamo be made into a refugee facility quickly?
One more American citizen who will be voting in 18 years.
Or even a future member of The Squad.
The base (where I grew up) is about 45 square miles. A portion of that is seeded with land mines. And much of it is used for Naval purposes and housing dependents.
It could be used, but not for all the evacuees.
How convenient.
Air pressure will do that
Another anchor baby, destined to be a democrat Presidential candidate in 2056.
Just missed the Golden Ticket by dropping on US soil.
Wheel chock baby.
