We usually focus on military training and readiness, but in this episode, we take a look at a separate but related topic: response and resilience in the face of natural disaster. In October, C2SI's President, Dan Blakeley, volunteered to assist with relief efforts in the wake of Hurricane Helene, which caused severe damage and loss of life in his home state of North Carolina in late September. We recently sat down to talk with him about his experiences and observations during his two trips to the western NC to assist with recovery efforts.
