U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Jacksonville District Commander Col. Brandon Bowman, and USACE Crisis Action Team listen as St. Cloud Fire Chief Jason Miller talks through the movement of Hurricane Milton across the State of Florida. USACE partnered with the local, state, and federal response to Hurricane Milton.
Col. Bowman, traveled throughout Florida to meet with emergency operations personnel and water managers in communities on the projected path of the Category 5 Hurricane. His motto was "Make a friend, before you need a friend." With this forward momentum he was able to provide local governments with the point of contact and posture resources for emergent threats.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers makes a difference in the lives of American citizens by responding to natural and human-caused disasters. 80 USACE personnel are deployed, coordinating with partners in the affected areas. Additionally, 20 USACE personnel support response efforts via reach-back, and USACE has 170 contractor personnel deployed. #Milton24 (U.S. Army Photo by Brigida Sanchez)
