In March 2020, the country was placed under emergency orders, and members of the Royal Bahamas Defence Force assisted the Police force in enforcing the curfew which was implemented by The Bahamas government. They were tasked with strategically manning the streets to ensure that persons adhered to the necessary Curfew Orders to aid in reducing the spread of the Novel Coronavirus.
The Royal Bahamas Defence Force remains committed to ensuring a safe and secure environment as the country forges ahead during the pandemic.
