AAR Food for Thought • Funding Deployment of DoD forces and equipment prior to a disaster declaration. • Contingency movement of general population residents. • Lack of a clearly-defined patient evacuation plan – defined, documented and synchronized patient evacuation plan. • Activation of NDMS • State Integrated SAR plan • Improving TRANSCOM’s coordinated response to conduct federally-supported, state-level contingency planning for real-world DSCA (disaster) missions. • Movement of pets on DoD aircraft. • Competition for same EMAC assets (NG and contracts) • PSMAs must be reviewed and updated to fit changing missions • BSI and FOSA requests not routed/approved properly
