Things fall apart, the center cannot hold

#1 in what I expect to be a series: "Frustrated: Fire crews to hand out fliers for FEMA"

I will note that if you read the full article - as you should - you'll see that the firefighters' superiors were told, FEMA claims, that their personnel were going to be used for community relations. But as one person noted, is that an appropriate use of resources?

Red tape. Red tape. "...a coordinating officer for FEMA, said sending out firefighters on community relations makes sense. They already have had background checks and meet the qualifications to be sworn as a federal employee...."
