Largest mock evacuation in Texas begins Wednesday
HARLINGEN – The largest mock disaster drill in Texas history is a go for Wednesday.
The hub of the activity is Valley International Airport. But the major airlift and transport of hurricane evacuees – including civilian hospital patients – will engage hospitals, personnel and airports from San Antonio to Dallas to Austin and Houston.
Yesterday, about two hundred military personnel wearing their operational camo milled inside a commandeered hangar at Valley International, setting up tan hospital tents and seeing to it everything is prepared.
“The interesting point is this is the largest disaster exercise Texas has ever done,” said Maj. Wayne Hill with the Texas Air National Guard. “Another significant piece of this is we’ve never contracted for commercial aircraft to fly our general population, non-medical people, out of the Valley.”
In addition to twin military C-130 transport planes, the drill will utilize two Boeing 737s and an MD-80 to transport civilians, Hill said.
Those flights will carry 400 volunteers to simulate an evacuation of the Valley as a Category 5 hurricane looms off the coast in the Gulf of Mexico. Another 64 volunteers will act the roles of medical transports, people who may be in wheelchairs or bed-bound or on IVs.
The two military cargo planes, the C-130s, will land in Harlingen on Wednesday morning. Then a hectic flight schedule begins at noon, with planes arriving and departing on the half-hour mark until the last plane departs Harlingen for Austin at 4 p.m.
The final flight is scheduled to land in Austin at 5:15 p.m. SOURCE

ARE YOU COMPLETELY PREPARED?
IT’S THE MOST IMPORTANT PREP YOU CAN DO!
The Bible tells us that every human has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God which is is a heart-penetrating truth. He has provided a way to cleanse us of our sins since we can never be “good enough” to cleanse ourselves. That avenue to God’s grace, mercy and forgiveness (the cleansing of our sins) is through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth Who is equally God.
Not one of us are guaranteed a “tomorrow”. Has your time run out? Will you continue to ignore the promptings of God the Holy Spirit or have you awakened to the essential need for God, risking eternal damnation?
God the Holy Father, God the Holy Son and God the Holy Spirit are One God, the true, living, uncreated God Who is ever-present, all knowing, all powerful and all loving. He desires that every single person be forgiven, saved and to live eternally with Him. He is our only real protection and His love for you is unchanging. Accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, the true Messiah, today.
You can’t take your salvation for a test drive. You’re all-in or not.
Admit to Him that you are a sinner in need of forgiveness, that you are truly sorry for your sins. Acknowledge that He died for your sins, rose from the dead and lives forevermore. Invite Him into your life and to help you to turn from sin. Rejoice! You just became a Christian! Now trust in Him and get to know Him through the Bible which tells us everything we need to know and through prayer/talking to Him. He eagerly desires relationship with you.
