For the second time a FEMA disaster event hit Guam. During the last half of November 2019, Hawaii National Guard’s 93rd Weapons of Mass Destruction Civil Support Team deployed to assist Guam’s National Guard in responding to a Mass Destruction event.
In this video, emergency responders inspect a school hit by WMD, dramatic medivac of responder who got contaminated during inspection:
Guam is part of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) Region 9, according to reports the U.S. island territory was hit by both a typhoon and a WMD terrorist attack! Emergency responders from California, New Mexico, Alaska, and Utah also provided assistance.
Fortunately this was part of what is now standard FEMA training for National Guard units across all the FEMA Regions, called Vigilant Guard.
Official video report, Vigilant Guard 2020:
Silly-vilians should be concerned, every year since the creation of Vigilant Guard the scenarios have gotten more elaborate because the U.S. Department of Defense, and FEMA, are expecting something really big to happen.

NASA’s aged and heavily modified DC-8 airliner is conducting air monitoring missions in relation to the growing wildfire danger in the western U.S.

President Donald Trump is portrayed by the ‘main-stream’ news media as being anti-climate, yet since he became President of the United States NASA (National Aeronautics Space Administration) has seemingly increased its studies of the effects of pollution and wildfires (including prescribed burns and agricultural fires) on the atmosphere.
On 23JUL2019, NASA held an explainer day for Idaho news media, and as you can tell not many showed up. Idaho Air National Guard photo by Master Sergeant Joshua C. Allmaras.

NASA says their DC-8 flys at 42-thousand feet (12-thousand-801 meters or 12.80 kilometers) for as long as 12 hours, collecting air samples with the many antennae protruding from the fuselage.

Six decades after California set the first global standards for industrial anti-air-pollution laws the National Aeronautics Space Administration (NASA) has proven those (and subsequent) laws to be laughable.

NASA used it’s modified U-2R/TR-1A, called the ER-2 (Earth Resources-2), to inspect industrial air pollution, scanning the ground from near-space (65-thousand feet/19-thousand-812 meters): “Before the pilots even take off, we put them on 100% oxygen for an hour to get all of the nitrogen out of their systems. It’s similar to what scuba divers can face. If they have nitrogen in their system, they can end up getting what they call the bends, and it’ll be a really bad day for that pilot.”-Wason Miles, ER-2 life support crew, from 2018 interview concerning the HyspIRI preparatory airborne mission over Hawaii

The two years long NASA-California methane mission resulted in the AVIRIS-NG ( Airborne Visible InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation) system, onboard the ER-2, discovering dozens of what NASA calls methane “super-emitters”(published 06NOV2019) across the Los Angeles area. This why I say California’s progressively ‘tougher’ anti-pollution laws failed. I lived in California when those anti-pollution laws began driving out many industries causing the loss of thousands of jobs just in the Los Angeles area, in the 1970s-80s. The exalted lawmakers of The Golden State then started playing games with their own anti-pollution laws, trying to woo back major employers. NASA’s California methane mission revealed that the industrial sector of the Los Angeles area is still pumping out clouds of pollution, even with stricter air quality laws and fewer industrial operations.

On 23OCT2019, the National Guard’s 21st Weapons of Mass Destruction-Civil Support Team (WMD-CST) Talon-4 robot was deployed in response to a potential WMD crime scene.

Talon-4 was used to conduct an initial inspection of the scene, before humans went in.

The ‘crime scene’ was inside a New Jersey commuter train. National Guard personnel suited-up to inspect the scene for themselves.

Samples were taken and everything turned out okay.

It was all part of training for New Jersey’s 21st WMD-CST, which supports silly-vilian (civilian) authorities in responding to man-made or natural disasters by identifying chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear substances, assess the consequences, and advises on response measures.

Pew Research Center estimates that as of 2016 more than 100-illegals call Oregon their temporary home, and that’s a decrease from the previous ten years!
In Brownsville, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted ‘Family Unit Removal’ of illegals from Guatemala. Since mid-July, Guatemala and the United States have implemented a new process to more expeditiously remove illegals. This enhanced cooperation results in reduced lengths of stays in custody for Guatemalan citizens.
At Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, U.S. Navy SeaBees were recognized for their efforts to help with recovery after the July earthquakes.
In San Diego, the U.S. Navy conducted exercise Citadel Rumble, enlisting the help of Amateur Radio Emergency Service to test emergency radio communications between USN hospitals during natural disasters.
A struggling pet shelter in Doha, Qatar, has only three full-time staff members and more than 130 dogs and cats! It’s looks more like a farm.
Staff Sergeant Lia Carter, New Jersey National Guard.
“We started out just wanting to find the animals in Doha, Qatar’s capital, and see what was going on with rescues.”-Staff Sergeant Lia Cater, New Jersey National Guard, who helps rescue strays in her hometown of Queens, New York
“We took 100 pounds of dog food and 50 pounds of cat food. The shelter’s staff was overwhelmed to see us. They had never had such a large group come out all at once and volunteer.”-Staff Sergeant Lia Cater, New Jersey National Guard, who helps rescue strays in her hometown of Queens, New York
“They primarily need people to come out and walk dogs, help the dogs exercise, and give the animals some personal attention.”-Staff Sergeant Lia Cater, New Jersey National Guard, who helps rescue strays in her hometown of Queens, New York
“This program gives something for everyone to look forward to. It is also good for relations between the U.S. and Qatar.”-Sergeant Jimmy Simmeron, New Jersey National Guard
“We are going to have to stop being the policemen of the world.”-Donald Trump, August 2015 interview with Hugh Hewitt

Appalachian Care Innovative Readiness Training 2019 began 16AUG2019, and ends on the 29th (that’s according to the military info, but the facebook page says 19-26). It involves National Guard, Air Force, Air Force Reserve, Army, Army Reserve and Navy Reserve personnel conducting ‘free’ (taxpayer expense) to the public medical care in Wise County, Virginia.

Military personnel will provide medical, dental, optometry and even pet care! So much for ObamaCare-ACA, these Appalachian Care/Appalachian Mountain IRT operations began under President Obama precisely because Obama knew people were not covered under the Affordable Care Act. Official video report from 2014:
Since 2014 the Appalachian Care/Appalachian Mountain Individual Readiness Training ops have been taking place at various locations across the Appalachian Mountain region.
