  1. My brother was a USAF C-141 Starlifter navigator in 1991 and had to evacuate American military families from Clark Air Base in the Philippines following the Mt Pinatubo disaster. Each person was allowed to bring two suitcases with them. Everything else was left behind for local scavengers to salvage (steal). We ended up closing Clark AB and the US Navy base at Subic Bay. These peacetime losses dwarfed the damage done at the Pompeii airfield in 1944.

  2.  @lizj5740  I would have been trying to save my model airplanes and comic books. I now live in fire country (Montana). Last year I had each family member draw up a list what they wanted to save if we have to bug out. The result is that I will need a long trailer and a dozen movers. 🙂
