A Feb. 3, 2020, photo of empty lodging facilities at the Camp Ashland Training Site in Nebraska. The Department of Defense is providing temporary lodging for up to 1,000 travelers being evacuated from China to the United States in response to the coronavirus outbreak there. Under a federal Health and Human Services request, DoD installations are only providing housing support. DHHS is responsible for all care, transportation and security of the travelers. DoD personnel will not be directly in contact with the travelers and they will not have access to any base location other than their assigned housing. The Nebraska National Guard is preparing to provide housing support to the University of Nebraska Medical Center and the federal Department of Health and Human Services should Camp Ashland be chosen as a quarantine site. The Nebraska National Guard has identified three unoccupied lodging quarters with 85 rooms, and three other vacant buildings available for use to DHHS. (Nebraska National Guard photo by Sgt.
