Now they are reporting largest evacuation in California history.....

The US Air Force flies U-2’s, Predator’s, Reaper, and Global Hawk UAV’s out of Beale AFB north of Sacramento CA and Creech AFB, outside of Las Vegas NV.  I bet they launch ten training sorties a day.  Rather than fly over fake targets, these aircraft could provide help to real Americans.  The USAF should be directed to immediately provide US NORTHCOM, FEMA, DHS, and the State of California as much support as they can handle including downlink vans, personnel, etc  as required.  The UAV’s could also “fire” their lasers to pinpoint the exact latitude and longitude of the hottest spots in the fires for precise application of ground crews or aerial tankers.
