Reunión de Bomberos

Guayubín, Dominican Republic

Coronel  Hipolito Capellan of the Guayubín Fire Department (“Bomberos”) presides over a planning meeting of rural fire chiefs and local public safety volunteers and other rural preppers. Col. Capellan’s foresight was laid out in stark contrast just a few months later when most of his community was under several feet of water after weeks of unrelenting rain.
