But what I have seen as well, is the community coming together, and their coming together as one team. So, when we had Marines here, it was just really easy for us to relate because we are all about teamwork, and we are basically just joining their team." At least 120 people were killed by the storm which has caused an estimated 50 billion dollars in damage.
