10 things I learned at FEMA camp

US army document FM 3-39.40 is the handbook for running the notorious FEMA camps. You can download it here. The document is also for internment camps overseas, but it applies at home as is stated after section 2-34.
  • Note. Resettlement conducted as a part of civil support operations will always be conducted in support of another lead agency (Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Homeland Security). 
 Skeptics will be skeptical, as is their nature, but keep in mind it was only 70 years ago that all the Japanese-Americans were marched off to camp by Executive Order 9066. Here's what we can expect.

1. Horses
Diagram J2, on page 261 shows 2 person mounted patrols. It would certainly be picturesque to have our guards on horseback.
