You know the one thing I didn't see in all of the approximately 30 solid minutes of different videos and stills I looked at last night? A military presence that was more than the merest token.

Where's our military in all of this? Surely, this disaster calls for a strong military response, with all of their hardware, expertise and organization.
4 navy amphibious ships are en route from Norfolk now. I agree with your point. Also, hasn't this historically been a job where the National Guard steps in first? Same problem, different symptom.
