Why Could not Helicopters have been Used More?

   I, too, wonder on why we could not be more responsive in our relief efforts in Puerto Rico. Fly over and drop parachutes with the goods. How long could that take? You get some of the goods, the first of the goods, together and fly them in, if necessary within 24 hours.
   Or, you bring the relief supplies in by transport helicopter. A helicopter could reach any spot in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. If, by chance, the helicopter doesn't have fuel tanks large enough to make it all the way to Puerto Rico, you bring the helicopters in on a transport ship.
   Problems with the port? Bring in the helicopters. Let the ships get the supplies close to the port, then let the helicopters take over for the last few hundred yards.
   The same goes for all the relief supplies sitting in the dock. Get the helicopters in there and transport the goods to the remote areas inside Puerto Rico and to the surrounding islands.
