USFA Hurricane Katrina: USFA Request to Mobilize Fire Service Members

USFA Hurricane Katrina: USFA Request to Mobilize Fire Service Members: "Our Nation is faced with the most catastrophic natural disaster in modern times, and we are calling upon the Nation’s fire service, both career and volunteer, to aid the affected citizens and communities. This is the United States Fire Administration’s request to mobilize members of the fire service within Federal guidelines.

The current need is for 1,000 two-person teams to serve as FEMA's community relations representatives in response to Hurricane Katrina. Each department may offer more than one two-person team. These people will be deployed as a team, and we prefer that they know one another prior to deployment."
