Collaborating with 300+ military, government, and private sector support members I wrote the DoD response playbook for the Wasatch Earthquake (Salt Lake City) and Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake and Tsunami (Pacific Northwest) events. These playbooks included the movement of 20,000+ pieces of personnel and support equipment into the impacted area through key logistical airport/road/staging areas.
