I've met USMC, AF, and Army Reserve O-4's and O-5's that are assigned as Emergency Preparedness Liaison Officers - what I haven't seen is a US Navy officer assigned in this capacity with FEMA. Is this a thing in Navy/Navy Reserves?
Thanks!
FWIW, EM positions within CNIC are civil service jobs, not military.I've met USMC, AF, and Army Reserve O-4's and O-5's that are assigned as Emergency Preparedness Liaison Officers - what I haven't seen is a US Navy officer assigned in this capacity with FEMA. Is this a thing in Navy/Navy Reserves?

There are 138 SELRES officers, mostly O-6s, detailed to support FEMA and State governments with DSCA. The program has produced several flag officers, including the immediate past Chief of Navy Reserve.FWIW, EM positions within CNIC are civil service jobs, not military.
Those guys came by here a couple weeks ago for a "required" annual brief to me... that just happened to include an all expense paid trip to Kauai. Self-licking ice cream cones, one and all.There are 138 SELRES officers, mostly O-6s, detailed to support FEMA and State governments with DSCA.

To be fair now, their all expense paid trip to Kuai was for mere days. Yours, on the other hand... ?Those guys came by here a couple weeks ago for a "required" annual brief to me... that just happened to include an all expense paid trip to Kauai. Self-licking ice cream cones, one and all.
Wait…does that mean instead of a self-licking ice cream cone there is a self-serving kind?To be fair now, their all expense paid trip to Kuai was for mere days. Yours, on the other hand... ?
Oh, there's no doubt this place could completely run itself without my help.To be fair now, their all expense paid trip to Kuai was for mere days. Yours, on the other hand... ?
