Just spoke to a US Military insider about the efforts for Hurricane Helene.
Here's what I was told:
The 82nd Airborne Division is known as America's "Global" Response Force.
They have the ability to have thousands of paratroopers anywhere in the world in 18 hours.
They provide combat capability, but also helicopter airlift, stand up hospitals, and other support.
They responded to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
The 82nd responded overnight to fly thousands of Afghans out of the country during the withdrawal.
Less than 1/3 of the entire division is on the "global" alert status.
Meaning there are thousands of members potentially available to render aid with a simple command.
So the question is why even a fraction of the 82nd can't be used to support relief efforts in the same state in which they are stationed (North Carolina)?
For whatever reason, they are unavailable for this effort.
As of now, they haven't been alerted for hurricane support.
They can be on the ground and in the sky within hours, organizing airlifts, building hospitals, bringing aid.
But they aren't.Biden-Harris can activate them if they so wished.
