I forgot to post this pic from earlier, but I’m in Florida. Are you?
Proud to support the External Affairs mission for the Response Directorate.
Citing my good friends from PIAT’s favorite hashtag: #JICLIFE
Hope all of you are having a great #AlohaFriday
It’s almost midnight. And just like so many Vegas casinos, there are no clocks at the IOF.
Weird.
Time for work.
Morning peeps. Lotsa hurry up and wait.
I’m glad to be supporting our response mission with solid FEMA PIO work. #Irma #FL
See, even in a disaster, people can be courteous.
Small things like this for your team’s safety is totes important.
Reporting live from the middle of Irma…
Late night briefing….in the laundry room.
Yes, it’s true. The “glorious” life of a Public Information Officer.
JIC Manager, Media Relations Manager, News Desk Specs, and PIOs – bring it in!

Busy lunch as we prep for Hurricane Irma hit. Can you say sandbags?
Disaster response = fun times.
HQ, I copy the demob orders from Texas and Puerto Rico.
I also copy the new deployment orders for Florida.
Less than 24-hours.
FEMA Administrator Brock Long made a poignant statement about his employees today in the NY Times:

Yes sir, we train all the time.
Many instructors across this nation can attest the long hours we spend providing training for hundreds of thousands of our all-hazards public safety professionals from all walks of life.
This is truly what we train for.
Where is @rusnivek?
