This is an interesting link, because it shows some of the logistics in getting aid into areas that need relief...it is the diary of a 'South coast" resident..but the south coast is not the Gulf, but Oregon...
Some South Coast residents know Matt Hall. He's a co-owner of the Port Orford News. He lived in Port Orford for two and half years, serving as the weekly paper's editor. He left in August 2004, and now works for a food company, North Slope Catering LLC, that caters to firefighters throughout the Northwest during the summer months. But still, the 48-year-old is a journalist.
Last Wednesday, Hall and his catering crew members in Pendleton were called to a bigger duty. Hall will be updating The World's readers over the next few weeks on his participation in the efforts to aid the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Check the link and read the whole thing...and it gives you some idea about the logistics involved in sending help to a disaster area...They started out on Sept 1st...and just arrived...
God bless them and all others trying to do their best
