Becca_in_MD said:Forget Sheila. I'm coming!!! My uncle sugars in CT and always hooks me up with his homemade maple sugar candy. Mmmmmm.
Sheila said:Thanks everyone! I'm from Dallas, so lots of family & friends in that area.
Sheila said:Still in a holding pattern. The US hasn't sent planes. Our Commanding Officer here on the base in Japan said he is hoping that the "button will be pushed" and the planes will be here & ready to take the first group at 6PM Sat night (Japan time). Not definitive yet. Still waiting for the official word that the plan is in play.
Sheila said:You know it ...
I am water. Someone blocks my path, I make a NEW path.
Good thinking!!Becca_in_MD said:When you get to TX, don't forget to put in for your natural disaster waiver with HO. Policy Guide p. 44. You will get to earn this month's promos in your make-up month and waive other requirements. You have to request it. They will not automatically apply it to your or your other evacuated team members.
Travel safely and sanely with those kids in tow.
This was my thought. Any of those truly cherished items I would just mail out now just in case!!kam said:Shelia,
Good luck to you and your family on your travels back to the States. And I am glad they will eventually get you "home". Thank you for all the updates.
It is amazing that you leave your home not knowing if/when you will return. Is it possible for you to ship those photo albums/irreplaceable items stateside now before you leave? Or perhaps atleast get them boxed and ready to ship if your husband comes back and can get them shipped?
It is good you have such positive attitude.
The President of the US has authorized this measure as a precautionary measure due to the current situation in Japan.
Air Force cargo passenger planes will be used to transport women and children first to a temporary destination, possibly Korea, for 1-2 days before transferring them to a final destination that is yet to be determined. Pacific Air Force planes will also be utilized, with a goal of evacuating 10,000 people per day through the three designated sites of Narita, Yokota, and Atsugi. Civilian airliners, such as United and American, may also be used to transport additional individuals.
It is advised to pack a suitcase with enough supplies for 3-5 days, including important documents like passports, and any necessary items such as diapers and baby food. Individuals should also plan to be away from Japan for a few days.
No, this is a precautionary measure and not an emergency evacuation. The goal is to ensure the safety of dependents living in Japan.
The evacuations are expected to start within the next 24 hours.
