Just in time for the 2020-2021 hurricane season, a lucky U.S. Air Force Reserve SAR (Search And Rescue) unit in Florida got a brand new HC-130J Super Hercules-Combat King-2.
The first HC-130J for USAF Reserves in Florida, takes off from its birthplace in Marietta, Georgia, 02APR2020.
FL-892 will call Patrick Air Force Base its home, cared for by the 39th Rescue Squadron-920th Rescue Wing. They are the first, and so far only, Reserve SAR unit to get a new HC-130J. (they do fly the older models of HC-130 SAR Hercules)
The HC-130J is one of nine versions of the C-130J series, specifically built for SAR and aerial refueling missions.
Video, HC-130Js operated by 23rd Wing out of Nellis AFB, Nevada, arrived at Moody AFB, Georgia, for up-load of equipment and supplies for SAR ops relating to the Hurricane Harvey disaster in 2017 (interesting how the new C-130Js with their new engines and six bladed props still sound like the old C-130s, well almost):

One or two pieces of light weight cloth will not work. The multiple layer t-shirt mask was tested against an N95, the conclusion was that

Many of the National Guard personnel being activated are already healthcare workers on the silly-vilian side.
