It appears that FEMA USAR teams VA-1 (Fairfax County VA) and CA-2 (Los Angeles County CA) have been activated for deployment to Haiti in response to the major earthquake.
I am unsure when they will be airborne, but wish them good luck and God speed in this deployment. From the looks of the images I have seen, there has been a significant amount of structural collapse in large buildings, the type of mission these teams are trained for.
Again, good luck to these folks, hope they stay safe.
Thanks for reading,

Yes, good luck to them. It seems Haiti and the poor folks there just cant seem to get a break from disasters.
