The Marines especially are on the lead to evacuate people from the Kyushu area affected by the ongoing quakes, mudslides and stuff. They' have their tilt rotors humping in and out. I expect this is going to do US and JSDF readiness no particular good.
If you send money be careful who you give it too. I don't trust the American Red Cross at all.

On that happy note, Yellow Fever is coming back. Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy, Joy for US troops stationed in heavy mosquito regions. That shit has a high fatality rate.

I haven't donated to the Red Cross in years. It's either Salvation Army, Soldier's Angels, or LifeSouth (for blood donations).

Sure would be nice if we had some sort of chemical pesticide that would kill mosquitoes.

Yellow fever vaccine isn't the nicest stuff, but it does exist.

You know things have gotten bad when the Japanese let Americans do search and rescue. Flight 123, anyone?
