SOF Vets Looking to help Helene Response: Initial responders have established a FOB-style footprint and are currently pushing ground and air teams from FOB to isolated personnel and communities vic Asheville. Intent is added capacity for local first responders and to leverage assets to assist them in establishing contact with isolated personnel/communities, building communications networks, and developing the situation by providing more accurate intel assessments and effective response efforts.

Link-up location:
FOB Savage
20 Patton Cove Rd
Swannanoa, NC

Coordinating Instructions:
-If possible, task organize into small groups traveling in Pickups/SUVs (limited space to park vehicles indefinitely)
-BPT self-sustain for your duration to extent possible. Food/water is available, but this will deplete on-hand stock.
-BPT to provide support ranging from FOB ops to field work. RON situations in austere areas are possible. Weather is expected to deteriorate over next week (rain, colder temps).

***Please coordinate response package info by email to: FOBSavageOps@gmail.com
Include:
#/names of individuals
#/type of vehicles
Any specialty equipment
Any speciality skill sets
***

Network and capabilities are continuing to expand and we will provide updates shortly. Very fluid situation as we build capacity and build out task org. Thank you!

We are out pacing all federal and state response according to local sheriffs and emergency management. Yesterday was 35 helicopters and 75,000 pounds of supplies, not counting dismounted teams. Horseback, dirtbike, truck, large freight
