	Following the fall of Arvene, the diaspora of citizens was in the millions, many of which took to the seas to try to sail to Kafrica and Kolus to live in the Confederacy and Aontas, rather than live in SFRK and be sent to labor camps. The ''Hamilton T. Thratcher'' was dispatched, almost immediately on commissioning, to assist refugee boats and pick up survivors during storms on their way to freedom.

	In 2199, the most severe typhoon in a century hit Kafrica, causing thousands of kerbals to lose their lives and millions more displaced. Worst hit was the ex-capitol of the Kroman Empire, Diosca, which had been almost completely flooded by the downpour. ''Hamilton T. Thratcher'' spent 10 months shipping supplies to the people on the island and providing medivac flights to those critically wounded in the days following the devastation.
