“Everyone should have their emergency supplies on hand already. Don’t wait until the last minute to go to the store to buy food. Purchase your supplies, get your free sandbags and you’ll be properly prepared.”-Master Sergeant Randy Golleher, U.S. Air Force, Okinawa, Japan

April is considered Typhoon Prep Month, they’ve even developed the Tropical Cyclone Conditions of Readiness (TCCOR) system: “When a typhoon is approaching, we stand up the virtual Emergency Operations Center with all of our island partners. We also begin to monitor the typhoon through the Defense Communications System and we make sure all military branches understand what TCCOR level we’re in.”-Master Sergeant Randy Golleher, USAF, Okinawa
On the U.S. island territory of Guam, the U.S. Air Force issued a typhoon explainer/prep video. On Guam, official Typhoon Season is May through November:
Also, the Airmen of Anderson Air Force Base, Guam, put together this ‘cheesy’ video on how to properly use a generator to supply electrical power to your home:

Some of you might say that the low-wing twin-engined aircraft, parked next to the PBY Catalina, is not from World War Two, and you’re correct. The USS Essex was also delivering a C-12U Huron to the Hawaiian Air National Guard. Hawaii Air National Guard photo by Technical Sergeant Andrew Jackson.
The workhorse U.S. training aircraft of WW2 is the T-6 Texan, known as SNJ in the U.S. Navy/Marines. The aircraft was so successful it was used decades after the war ended, by various countries around the world.
This Texan is in U.S. Air Force markings, which is post-WW2 as the USAF was created in September 1947, two years after WW2 ended.
The F8F Bearcat was developed during the war, but the war ended before it could be used in battle.

In a possible round-a-bout way of training for the Cascadia Event, personnel with the state Army National Guard were deployed to Bangladesh to take part in a five days Disaster Response Exercise and Exchange (DREE). The international training for a catastrophic earthquake is considered to be the biggest yet: “There are 20 different countries at this DREE which is great and that means just over 100 individual actual foreign participants which makes up more than 650 participants on opening day. It’s a long way from where we started and you can see the direct impact the DREE program has had over the years.”-Master Sergeant Robert Bentcliff, U.S. Army Pacific Command (USARPAC)
On 06NOV2019, U.S. Army and local EMTs conducted training in preparation for the catastrophic Cascadia Event.
