The Air Force general who commands NORAD says approximately 13,000 Defense Dept. personnel have been working on the federal response to the hurricane that came ashore in North Carolina days ago and continues to cause havoc in the Southeast.
Gen. Terrence O'Shaughnessy praised the military response, saying it is working “seamlessly” with FEMA, as well as state and local efforts. However, he expressed concern about flooding that could continue to claim lives and destroy property over the next few days.
