Use a Sledge Hammer

• It rarely pays to be subtle• Better to have too much than not enough• Push resources into the area of impact, don’t

wait for requests• A quick and overwhelming response is better

than a well planned and thought out response• If you wait until you have all facts, it becomes

harder to change the outcome

Semper Gumby“always flexible”

"Semper Gumby." Coined by the U.S. Marines during the 1991 Persian Gulf War to characterize the moving-target nature of their mission, Semper Gumby is the perfect battle cry for today's Emergency Managers All Hazards Approach to disaster response and recovery.
