It’s not like this is the ‘FIRST’ nor the last tornado Kansas will see....or am I mistaken....???

And the equipment that was sent to Iraq has likely been gone for 3-4 years... Which means that Kathleen has spectacularly failed to plan.

You are very correct. I am in Leavenworth (the town, not the "graybar hotel" :-)

“And the equipment that was sent to Iraq has likely been gone for 3-4 years... Which means that Kathleen has spectacularly failed to plan.”

I don’t know about her planning, but the equipment almost certainly has gone out at various times, not all at once. More equipment is shipped over as machinery is destroyed or wears out, or as new units are called over. At least that the way it’s been where I live.

I imagine she’ll find state and local equipment to fill in, unless she’s a completely useless dolt.
