Brazil is facing a political crisis after a judge blocked the appointment of former president Lula Da Silva as chief of successor to his successor Dilma Rousseff. The federal judge issued an injunction on the grounds his appointment could derail legal proceedings. They charged the former president with Money Laundering and fraud as part of an investigation into corruption at petro brass. They say she brought him into the government to protect but to secure his support in blocking impeachment procedure against rousseff herself for alleged financial mismanagement. Lets start with Lula Da Silva. Has he been stopped from joining the government . Reporter he ha z at least temporarily. A pearl judge in braisilia, which is the capital. However the federal government is now appeals that decision. Bottom line here, Public Opini
Authorities utilize in terms of frequencies and wave forms and thats not something that we do every day as communicators. So it provides an opportunity for a more wellround ed case and i certainly got into that territory this year. Thank you. Theres definitely 3 things im going to hit hard with my relief. First is understand that c2 piece because it is complicated. We dont understand under that structure normally. Its very important that my relief understands or any disca planner understands that c2 piece. Second is understand the ics and then take the time to get the training. We put together a pretty robust Training Plan in preparation for this. We did the fema online course, eoc course at nasne, hadr course, trained with cal fire, take the time to take that training. Its tough to fit it in but its important to fit it in and it will make us more effective. We did an exercise back in may in preparation for this and developed a pretty detailed concept of operations. We built load plan,
He can pull it right off the shelf if this ever happens and be ready to respond quickly instead of trying to figure this all out when we need to be getting underway. Ill boil mine down into just one, and that is i will pass to my relief to continue to support events like this and look for opportunities to continue to learn how we best in the military can integrate with our civilian and federal contemporaries to be prepared for an eventuality that we hope will never come, but we certainly should be prepared for. So the one thing im passing on is keep the momentum. Thank you, all. One other benefit that was cited in the after action review and also was mentioned today is the chance it meet someone else from the other agency. We also heard a lot about training, understanding ics, understanding dsca and thats defense support of civil authorities. Its the Guiding Principles for how our Armed Services are going to support civilians when something happens. And i think those are common across
Being provided in the disaster scene. Like colonel ingels, i was impressed by the robust, defined chain of command and a large response capable of being produced. However, in an overwhelming disaster things dont always go as planned and certainly our experiences in combat has showed us there and Prior Experience with disasters have outlined that even though theres a welldefined system of response it doesnt always work out. What i defined yesterday was that logistics problems may get in the way and interfere with medical surge planning as is outlined. Putting resources where they are needed in a huge disaster may outstrip the ability of local authorities to do that because roads are out. The niche we have as the marine corps assets we have the ability to locate some of our resources like shock trauma platoons, thats what we do in combat and we have experience with that and that may be something that may be of benefit to this process. During the last panel, mr. Cahen mentioned its so imp
Communication is going to make all the difference. We can still provide top level trauma care and still provide as the recovery unfolds the kind of primary care and other care that will need to happen when our infrastructure has been seriously impacted. So it really has shifted how were thinking literally from a tactical, just immediately taking care of whats in front of us, to a strategic kind of plan that we can now look at and really do the best for the city. So the captain and the colonel, through the discussions that took place yesterday, what are some of the things you learned about relating to civilian issues that will exist and how will you be able to help . . Oo . A Northern California has rich and diverse medical response capabilities. Its impressive the types of capabilities, the number of assets, the number of people trained to do these things are. The California National guard has air and land assets that are substantial and can be rapidly deployed to assist the civil resp
