    Team Rubicon has sent additional teams into the Philippines as part of their Operation Seabird.
    http://teamrubiconusa.org/launching-operation-seabird/

    For those not familiar, Team Rubicon is a group made up of American military veterans who lend their skills to first responders to rapidly deploy emergency assistance in situations similar to what is going on in the Philippine islands.

    You can read more here on their blog about the field base they just set up in Tacloban in coordination with the USMC and Filipino Air Force.

    And young too. I've seen a large number of these volunteers are those who just returned from active duty in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Very cool that these vets are still giving of themselves after everything they've already done serving our country.

    I read the info on Team Rubicon you provided - didn't know about it until now. It benefits all involved and is a great service to mankind.
