Incomplete list of seismic/natural disaster reports from around the Pacific Ring of Fire, March 2019. Not only is quake and volcano activity ramping up around the Pacific Ring of Fire, it’s ramping up around the planet. Does it have anything to do with the Earth moving away from the Sun?

JAPAN: A government panel says a massive eruption of Fujiyama could send volcanic ash all the way to the wider Tokyo metropolitan area, the eruption would last 15 days. The last time Fujiyama erupted was from December 1707 to January 1708 (Gregorian calendar). Interesting that Fujiyama erupted seven years after the last Cascadia Event hit the Pacific Northwest of North America.

The U.S. Army’s 25th Infantry Division (based in Hawaii) deployed its Tropic Lighting Division to New Zealand, to receive training on New Zealand’s National Disaster Response Framework and prep for future disaster deployments: “While the Indo-Asia Pacific presents unique challenges in disaster relief emergencies, it all comes down to people and relationships that make the absolute difference. Building partnerships and alliances ahead of those disasters are a critical component to mission success.”-Lieutenant Colonel Jason Hetzel, U.S. Army

Arizona; 
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District conducted an earthquake continuity of operations training by simulating an emergency move of their Los Angeles HQ to Pheonix, Arizona. Think about that, the Army Corps of Engineers is prepping for a southern California quake so big that they’ll have to move their HQ out of California! According to the military report, preps for such a scenario began in 2018, as part of a Presidential Directive, Public Law and Corps regulations.

U.S. military/USAID Humanitarian Assistance Response Training conducted 06MAR2019, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam.
On 09MAR2019, more than 120 state militia personnel (National Guard) took part in FEMA Region 9 mass-casualty training: “Det. 1 Hawaii is poised in the middle of the pacific, where we train to respond quickly with a team made up of professional responders. Some of our Airmen are already in the local fire department, police and EMS departments. It makes it easy to just sync right in. So there’s a credibility that we worry less about catching up to the civilian standards, because we come trained, equipped and interoperable with our civilian response partners. We have a small, close knit community in Hawaii, but at the same time, it’s also like we’re one big, extended family always find ways to provide kokua.”-Lieutenant Colonel James Faumuina, 154th Medical Group’s Detachment 1
Idaho:

From 07-13MAR2019, the Idaho Army National Guard conducted Idaho Response-19 at Orchard Combat Training Center (aka Orchard Training Area). More than 350 Guard personnel from Idaho, Washington, Montana and Utah took part. Apparently the chemical weapons suits were part of an earthquake simulation in which the earthquake caused an argon gas leak.
