Stories “Treme” leaves out. Showtime, baby.
So I just looked forward to see what comments he would have made about Katrina.
Very interesting! A chapter is devoted to it, which starts with a quote:
"A lie will go around the world while the truth is pulling its boots on."
and then the first paragraph reads:
Tropical storm Katrina intensified to a category 5 hurricane on August 28, 2005, while it was still several hundred miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. Expecting landfall in the next 48 hours, the new NORTHCOM commander, Admiral Tim Keating, began issuing orders and alerts to military units across the United States. He deployed an advance headquarters to Camp Shelby, Mississippi, and created a staging area for FEMA at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana. The Department of Defense activated a hurricane operations cell in the Pentagon to monitor developments. Search-and-rescue aircrews were alerted that they might soon be needed. Navy ships with relief capabilities were ordered to proceed to the area.
