Amateurs in the affected areas received many communications assignments and were able to carry them out with available personnel. However, it is somewhat sobering that we were not able to assemble a longer list of qualified volunteers willing to be deployed, had they been needed, from adjacent areas. We will be working to improve this in the future.
Not every hurricane season is going to be like 2005. Not every storm is going to be a Katrina. But when they are, we must be prepared.
