There was an air traffic controller in the USAF that was at Travis AFB
in northern California. He was assigned the role of military liason
to San Franciso. October 17th, 1989, the famous World Series
Earthquake leveled his apartment building in Frisco. He lost
everything.

They sent him to Clark AB in the Phillipines. He'd been at Clark 3
months when Mt Pinatubo blew up in June of '91. He lost everything.

He and his family were evacuated with nothing but the clothes on their
backs to Homestead AFB in Florida. On August 24th 1992, Hurricane
Andrew leveled it. He lost everything.

You two related? I only do the small stuff, so my danger radius is
only a few feet. You're on the "national and international" disaster
level. Do you get a call from the President saying "country X is
****ing us off, we need you to go there and "teach" them a lesson?"
