My daughter has been a SAR team member since graduating HS, so, 14 years already. I've gladly contributed to this difficult mission. Praying for all involved ❤
Might want to look in the mirror and blame yourself. Republicans don't care about you they stopped funding. Do you remember that hurricane that hit under the last Trump administration where the governor asked for like 20 million Trump gave you 1 million. It's just maddening it's completely embarrassing that Americans are not bright enough to figure out Trump is a Russian asset. Russians li
The locals know that cowgirl. Its the country thats mislead. We dont need fema or the governments help. They just want the lithium mine thats there. The ones helping are being the good samaritans.
I don’t understand why we are seeing so many “SAR” teams asking for money for equipment. We searched for 1 person for 63 days. We did not have to request money nor did we have to pay ANY of the professionals who assisted us. All actual qualified SAR professionals had the equipment they needed bc this is what they do for a profession. We continue to see “digital creators” raising 10’s of thousands of dollars for equipment. So many grifters and unqualified people out there completely devastating the families of the missing.
What do you expect from the government, exactly? To rebuild the mountains and rivers, fix all the roads then move on to everyone's houses and make it all okay then give you a lollipop? The GOP/MAGAs motto is to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps".... Wouldn't that suggest to you that everyone in a bad way should just stay down considering it's literally impossible? Maybe I'm confused, but the government conservatives created doesn't do a whole lot that doesn't benefit only themselves and the rich people. Surprise!!!
@ you are so right! 9-11 was when everything really took a turn for the worse, like the slide we are all on leaned downwards we all have been going down with it. But your comment is dead on.
I will never comprehend why your government has just abandoned these people its like Helene never happened. Most people are just not aware of this disaster the worst in American history. Shame on this government & FEMA. Absolutely inept response to this hurricane. Thank you & the ordinary American people helping one & another you are the heroes. Never forget.❤🙏🏻😢
Unfortunately because people sharing rumors others are believing it. Like saying fema didn’t help ..they did and have. Some people didn’t fill the paper eork our right and gave up. If they just asked for help by the many fema workers that were there and set up then those that didn’t get help would have. But I know many that were helped
the goons want the land and good people DEAD!! They want the minerals quartz and Lithium!!! And they are not through killing...more grid down crap on the way!!! These are God-fearing GOOD folk...goverment wants slaves!!!!
This process will probably last for years, I imagine most of what went into the water that day was torn to pieces, i hate to even think about how this will affect anyone who might find what you are searching for. Search and rescue or anyone else. God Bless you guys ❤️ I am from Asheville, my heart is completely broken for my home and my brothers and sisters that live there. Thank God that the family i do have there are safe. But my heart breaks for the rest of the people there, they are my brothers and sisters too. So thankful for the selfless people that put their own life into bringing the lost children home ❤
Lord! Have mercy! Keep these recovery workers safe! My condolences to all who lost loved ones and still have missing family members! Lord, have your way. I pray that whatever caused this breakdown for this area to not receive proper emergency assistance will be investigated and dealt with so that this never happens again! Lord, send more help!!! They are in need of boats/rafts with experienced operators divers, anchormen.
It's not about rescue anymore. It's about recovery. No body, no death certificate. Families with missing loved ones could be hung up in probate court for years.
Amen Please Help All You Can. To Bring The Loved One's Home. So Family's Can Put Them To Rest. & Have Closers. This Was Uncalled For. The Storm Was A Natural Dis. But The Way The People Were Treated Is A Man Dasatore. M. H. O. Allegedly The Government Didn't Help Them. What If That Was Their Loved One's Missing. You Can Bet They Would. Have Everyone They Could. Get Looking For Them.
Thank you, Travis. It is shocking. It is so large, wide, deep, I'm not able to get my mind around it AND it's very cold! Even the clothing costs a lot, it's all expensive. God bless you all with wisdom and support.
Thank you! To you and all of the locals and volunteers from all over the world. I still don’t understand why this is not in the main news. There is still so much help needed up there.
🌴🌴🌴 I cant thank you enough for staying out there and bringing us so many reports. You’ve been a blessing to these communities that have been looked over by our government. Keep on keeping on my friend Travis. Blessings,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
No, they know EXACTLY what they are doing. Your parents and grandparents let them experiment for decades on other countries, including many of the 34 American countries. Reading may be difficult, but the more you do it the easier it gets.
This may sound morbid to some, and I deeply apologize for this....BUT, Something my late father who was a Detective and Deputy down here in Georgia talked about: When trying to locate a deceased body, watch the sky's for buzzards, swarms of flies and insects and look for animal tracks, such as bear, bobcats and such. I'm sorry if this comment seems harsh. I'm sure most of y'all already know this. My continued Prayers and thoughts for my dear neighbors up there. 🙏💯
Years ago we had 2 horses that were struck by lightning and my husband dug a deep hole you couldn’t see the tractor and before I knew it within a couple days we had turkey vultures on every fence post of our 20 acres I thought I was in a horror movie

🙏❤️To all who are in the field daily trying to bring closure to the families who have lost so much. It is 💔 that our 🇺🇸 seems to find it more urgent to send aid to foreign nations, when so much is happening or has happened to so many of our nation. It is frustrating to know that at bases around this nation the equipment these volunteers need is available and yet not being utilized to the fullest to help. I pray that the next administration will change how these “natural” disasters are happening and being responded to. There should still be boots on the ground, equipment made available, with trained personnel helping out. Thank you to all the civilians who have responded and continue to work, day in and day out, in spite of being physically and mentally distressed, by what they are witnessing. Thank you to all the independent reporting being done, keeping us informed of the reality of what is happening. It is clear the main stream media does not care. Continued prayers for all of you as you press on. May the good Lord keep you safe and strong as you deal with the challenges you are facing.
WLOS is only interested in frivolous puff pieces aimed at keeping tourism alive and well. As far as the city of Asheville is concerned, the event is over. Incompetent city leadership, DEI hires. People who don't have a clue and couldn't care less 😤🤬
We had a pretty significant flood in tioga county Pennsylvania back in August of 2024. We still have atleast 1 missing that for sure went into the river.. hopefully these familys can somehow find peace!
Thank you, Travis, for the time, effort, and money you are expending in order to keep your viewer aware of the ongoing situation in WNC from the devastation from hurricane Helene. I live in western Colorado, but have been following this horrific "weather event" since day one. What I find to be incredible, is that when I talk to people out here, they have no idea about any of it!! Unfortunately, the lack of any government response doesn't surprise me one bit. Hopefully, that will change next month. God bless you, and the SAR team, and may He keep you safe.
Amen God Bless You All. For Helping These Poor Folks. We The People Will Never. Forget This Disgusting Government & This Addmistration. Worst Ever. They Will Go Down In History. As The One's That Didn't Care For America At All. Allegedly.
Few weeks after the storm hit our government was just plowing. Not even looking for a human remains. People were going live recording it and you can hear the cries of the people as our government was just plowing
Recovery this late, is easier in terms of High temperature decay rates are hard to work with, a little easier when they are colder with less decay. The Turtles and Bears made a mess for these poor recovery guys. They are driven by deeper Godlike qualities in many cases, but they are mortal themselves. Gods blessings guys, and the women helping likewise. It has lasted me a life time. I can't not Rescue or recover. Dead birds even get a little pile of dirt in my yard, for their journey to dust.
Thank you to all those that are helping in these operations. My heart hurts for those that have missing family and friends as well as these folk who are facing such hardships to help. May the Lord richly bless each of you.
Sadly people will remain missing and not be found. Situations like this are similar to the tsunami where people were swept to sea and never found. They are buried or swept away, maybe eaten or torn to shreds by rocks and debris. We can hope and pray but must prepare for the worst and hope for the best. As for being left alone to deal with this situation, someone already said it. This will back fire and make at the least that area stronger in the long run
Could you please find some auto dealership donate a heat duty truck to this man? Plus start a go fund me for this man. To help with his volunteers and him please 🙏❤✝️
Our President should be sending in the Army Corp of Engineers. Biden would rather spend $200 billion on a war helping Ukraine. That cannot be won. I believe Trump will help these people first day in office.
Exactly Amen They Need To See. What The Government Has Not Done For The N. C. People. & Not Only Them A Bunch Of Others Are Surffing Also. Prayers For All Of Them. God Bless Them All.
You all need to come down on your Governor, I was watching Steve Baker who is an independent journalist do a interview on Blaze News with a gentleman thats pretty far up in the Army and he said it falls back on Y'alls Governor not asking for help, so apparently, he is Not asking for help and you ALL need to bombard his office...
It's been an honor at the same time as a nightmare. At the same time, it's been uplifting. The more people that are aware the better it is for everyone. Thanky you for following along
Good luck yall.. im in upper jacks creek and it is about to get real cold , January and feb are the worst months here - cold wet and big winds… be safe and Bless you all ❤
Thank yall. I'm beyond words. I'm not political but America is my country. God will see us through. Prayers faith and hope brings the right ones together. 😊
Still possible because the Government, 💯 % let us down. The people of Appalachia, the people of Maui, Hawaii, the people of every tragic accident, the past 4 years, mostly the people of the USA. Stay blessed and take care Travis and family.
Does anyone on the ground have an updated count of how many died in the region from the hurricane. Google, keeps reporting the same 103, from months ago.
I don’t have an exact number here, but we have had ice chests with remains being kept in coolers. I hate to say it, but the numbers are upwards of 1000
@HerBeautysInsideOut I have heard that they originally ordered 10,000 body bags. An later ordered 10,000 more. Doesn't mean they used that many for bodies, could have been a bunch lost or damaged in some way. But your right it could easily be a 1,000 or more, they are still finding lots of signs of bodies under piles of stuff.
I've been in the field roughly 29 days. Of which I was on 5, maybe 6 recovery missions. Confirmed human remains from 2 of the 6 missions. Another roughly 30 different hits may be more counting the aqua eye. The really depressing thing about this, depending on the county, the authorities don't allow digging depending on the county. We have to hand off the finds to the authorities. Then, the authorities stop communicating about the finds. The disrespect and lack of communication is an absolute disgrace. The hits and marks I'm talking about where done with official HRD dogs. Not the dogs they are finding dead animals and marking them. The first recovery took the SAR team about 16 days just to recover one small part. I believe you were there for part of that process. In this case, they were allowed to dig after they got the permits. The remains were sent off to DNA testing, which could take 6 weeks to 2 years. All reasons why the government needs to step in and handle this. Not citizens going broke doing the cities job.
Everyone knows this and other disasters were man made and why to these poor people and maui and paradise and many others . We arent as stupid as they think and God is about to turn things on them
God Bless You for doing this very sad and tiring work and those also who have been able to help in all the different ways they have. I pray that continues. My heart so aches for everyone affected by Helene. No mention of FEMA. People have given up on any assisstance from them. And this administration has nothing to say I guess. Much love from WA state.
Shame on you trolling this. President Trump was boots on the ground 24 hours after the storm ended. He met with Franklin Graham and presented several $mil to start the rescue. By the time Kamala showed up everyone had been boots on the ground for a couple weeks. Biden never showed up. VP Vance grew up in Appalachia. If you have nothing good to offer better don't criticize.
Hi Travis, hope all is well with you. Im concerned about Lewis,he doesn't really sound good. Please keep an eye on him. God Bless each and every one of you.
Blessings on these rescue people having find those that are missing . You are doing far more than our so called government didn't even attempt to do .prayers for your safety and well being .
There is money allocated that just passed the congress bill so that might be just what is needed. Good job guys keep going. Travis you did a great job filming this carry on:).?
1) Biden cheated, 2) Biden has dementia so Obama is running everything & he is known for NOT being compassionate; 3) FEMA is a money laundering operation and has been since at least 2005.
@3929Cindy please cite your source. All I see online is one individual posting this info and an article about a donor giving MAGA PAC $25 million as a campaign contribution.
Why the heck can't they change the laws for missing people in this case. Yes, I know there will be some who take advantage, but geeze! Look at all the other corruption in our world-especially in our government! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is criminal. These people have been essentially abandoned. I totally respect this TSAR team however they need way more help. It is shocking and appalling. These people should not be scrambling to get equipment. It is good you are covering this because nobody would guess how this catastrophe is being handled. Just videotaping with minimal narration is best. That way nobody can accuse you of having an agenda. Truly reprehensible that more help is not coming. My God this is horrendous. Heartbreaking. These people are risking their lives and frankly it is too dangerous. Not that the missing do not deserve to be found. But if someone dies in the mission it would be more tragedy. That is a river of tears. And more bad weather is coming in next 2 weeks to NC and TN. Try to give out sleeping bags. Nobody should be in a tent. I think they won't survive. Call your senators and congressmsmen. This situation is very dire and hazardous.
Cold, dangerous, toxic and emotionally demanding work. Thanks for helping and caring. 🙏
Keep giving updates ! The media doesn't report this ! Thank you!
The media is trash. I'm happy people are starting to wake up to that fact.
Thank you for all that you do sir, millions are still oblivious to the situation.
I can't look away, I will not look away.
@rodneycaupp5962 if possible, show up with a selfless heart, and it will change you. Community and SAR are absolutely vital.
My daughter has been a SAR team member since graduating HS, so, 14 years already. I've gladly contributed to this difficult mission. Praying for all involved ❤
Praying for all involved Thank You for Your .Post Blessings ,His Greatest and for The Puppy's
You should be so proud of her. I was just telling my wide each of our children will be joining SAR
Our current Government should be ashamed of themselves!
Thank you to the volunteers and God bless you all!🙏
more than merely ashamed - FIRED !!!!
You have to have a conscience to be ashamed .these are so evil theirs has been seared like Bible says
The next administration will be worse.
They are criminals not government 😢
Might want to look in the mirror and blame yourself. Republicans don't care about you they stopped funding. Do you remember that hurricane that hit under the last Trump administration where the governor asked for like 20 million Trump gave you 1 million. It's just maddening it's completely embarrassing that Americans are not bright enough to figure out Trump is a Russian asset. Russians li
The Good Samaritan is everyone’s job.
The govt is not your savior. Stop thinking they are . Your life will improve.
The locals know that cowgirl. Its the country thats mislead. We dont need fema or the governments help. They just want the lithium mine thats there. The ones helping are being the good samaritans.
Exactly!
Why r we then paying federal tax? To support other countries? 🤬
I don’t understand why we are seeing so many “SAR” teams asking for money for equipment. We searched for 1 person for 63 days. We did not have to request money nor did we have to pay ANY of the professionals who assisted us. All actual qualified SAR professionals had the equipment they needed bc this is what they do for a profession. We continue to see “digital creators” raising 10’s of thousands of dollars for equipment. So many grifters and unqualified people out there completely devastating the families of the missing.
I cannot believe the abandonment by our own government. It’s mind boggling.
What do you expect from the government, exactly? To rebuild the mountains and rivers, fix all the roads then move on to everyone's houses and make it all okay then give you a lollipop? The GOP/MAGAs motto is to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps".... Wouldn't that suggest to you that everyone in a bad way should just stay down considering it's literally impossible? Maybe I'm confused, but the government conservatives created doesn't do a whole lot that doesn't benefit only themselves and the rich people. Surprise!!!
After 9-11 nothing should be a shock. I don't know how many things they have to do in our face for people to see they don't care🤷
@ you are so right! 9-11 was when everything really took a turn for the worse, like the slide we are all on leaned downwards we all have been going down with it. But your comment is dead on.
Heads up! The GOVT is not here to save you.
I think the government is holding out so it can take over this land for it's mineral rights a land grab!
It warms my heart seeing the young adults doing they're best to help, gives me hope for the future ❤❤❤
Thank you Nora
I will never comprehend why your government has just abandoned these people its like Helene never happened. Most people are just not aware of this disaster the worst in American history. Shame on this government & FEMA. Absolutely inept response to this hurricane. Thank you & the ordinary American people helping one & another you are the heroes. Never forget.❤🙏🏻😢
With all due respect, I believe the hurricane that hit Galveston early 1900’s was the worst.
It is like a tsunamie came down the mountains... Jesus, Mercy for the deceased, their families and all the helpers.
There are people in charge who do not care. The citizens do.
Unfortunately because people sharing rumors others are believing it. Like saying fema didn’t help ..they did and have. Some people didn’t fill the paper eork our right and gave up. If they just asked for help by the many fema workers that were there and set up then those that didn’t get help would have. But I know many that were helped
the goons want the land and good people DEAD!! They want the minerals quartz and Lithium!!! And they are not through killing...more grid down crap on the way!!! These are God-fearing GOOD folk...goverment wants slaves!!!!
Oh goodness 😢 when you said "Operation BRING THEM HOME".... I lost it 😭
Continued prayers for ALL affected by this disaster 🙏🙏🙏
Texas Nana
Psalm 91
Yeah when I heard that, operation bring them home the tears started flowing.
I pray for everyone involved, which includes SAR teams and citizens. I am also praying for justice. God bless.
This process will probably last for years, I imagine most of what went into the water that day was torn to pieces, i hate to even think about how this will affect anyone who might find what you are searching for.

Lord! Have mercy! Keep these recovery workers safe! My condolences to all who lost loved ones and still have missing family members! Lord, have your way. I pray that whatever caused this breakdown for this area to not receive proper emergency assistance will be investigated and dealt with so that this never happens again! Lord, send more help!!! They are in need of boats/rafts with experienced operators divers, anchormen.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus, Amen!
It's not about rescue anymore. It's about recovery. No body, no death certificate. Families with missing loved ones could be hung up in probate court for years.
Amen Please Help All You Can. To Bring The Loved One's Home. So Family's Can Put Them To Rest. & Have Closers. This Was Uncalled For. The Storm Was A Natural Dis. But The Way The People Were Treated Is A Man Dasatore. M. H. O. Allegedly The Government Didn't Help Them. What If That Was Their Loved One's Missing. You Can Bet They Would. Have Everyone They Could. Get Looking For Them.
Thank you, Travis. It is shocking. It is so large, wide, deep, I'm not able to get my mind around it AND it's very cold! Even the clothing costs a lot, it's all expensive. God bless you all with wisdom and support.
God bless all of you who won't give up!
Thank you! To you and all of the locals and volunteers from all over the world. I still don’t understand why this is not in the main news. There is still so much help needed up there.
🌴🌴🌴 I cant thank you enough for staying out there and bringing us so many reports. You’ve been a blessing to these communities that have been looked over by our government. Keep on keeping on my friend Travis.
Blessings,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
This might backfire... The government is simply creating even stronger Americans 🇺🇸
No, they know EXACTLY what they are doing. Your parents and grandparents let them experiment for decades on other countries, including many of the 34 American countries. Reading may be difficult, but the more you do it the easier it gets.
Amen to that !
As we should be ,as we found we can't trust or receive the help needed from the government.
Yep they sure are! Well done folks love your committment. 💚
Who would have thought they are still finding bodies!! God bless these men!❤
This may sound morbid to some, and I deeply apologize for this....BUT, Something my late father who was a Detective and Deputy down here in Georgia talked about: When trying to locate a deceased body, watch the sky's for buzzards, swarms of flies and insects and look for animal tracks, such as bear, bobcats and such. I'm sorry if this comment seems harsh. I'm sure most of y'all already know this. My continued Prayers and thoughts for my dear neighbors up there. 🙏💯
Years ago we had 2 horses that were struck by lightning and my husband dug a deep hole you couldn’t see the tractor and before I knew it within a couple days we had turkey vultures on every fence post of our 20 acres I thought I was in a horror movie

Only thing is, that most of the people that didn't make it, are all under water. They died from drowning and got washed away by the water.
Agree
Not harsh, just common factual knowledge, to pass on to those who don't already know.
Thank you Travis, God bless Everyone! 🙏🩵🇺🇸

I totally Agree with your Assessment...
We had a pretty significant flood in tioga county Pennsylvania back in August of 2024. We still have atleast 1 missing that for sure went into the river.. hopefully these familys can somehow find peace!
There was horrific manmade flooding all over the world Aug/Sep/Oct with little or no media coverage. Criminal!
Thanks for your selfless acts of kindness. I will definitely be joining a SAR team next year.
Thank you, Travis, for the time, effort, and money you are expending in order to keep your viewer aware of the ongoing situation in WNC from the devastation from hurricane Helene. I live in western Colorado, but have been following this horrific "weather event" since day one. What I find to be incredible, is that when I talk to people out here, they have no idea about any of it!! Unfortunately, the lack of any government response doesn't surprise me one bit. Hopefully, that will change next month. God bless you, and the SAR team, and may He keep you safe.
The next administration will be worse. Do you remember when Trump threw paper towels to the people of OUR US TERRITORY of Puerto Rico?
So sad😢Thank you to the SAR teams for hanging in there.
Amazed that some company like Chevrolet hasn't donated 100 trucks
Lot of deep state left wing ignore these disasters since it's the evil ones who cause them for greed
Agreed.
They are too busy scamming people on those $100k pickups...
Bad freeze coming and ice and snow. I pray these people get shelter
We have a 4x4 suburban and a boat to donate. It isn't new, 2003. Will this help???? We're located in Arvada, Colorado.
My heart is so sad....God go before you and make a way where there seems to be no way.....❤
God bless all of the Hero's 😊❤
May God bless all who help these poor people! 🙏❤️
Praise the Lord for these people! May God bless them and provide them protection, and the provisions they need to continue their efforts.
God Bless Them All & Keep Them Safe.
Prayers to all everyone! Hi to Mindy and the SAR team!
Prayers for all the individuals that stepped up and have come in to help these people affected by these hurricanes.
real men , deserve God’s blessing to stay safe, remember your rewards are not on this earth! I hope all the NC people see this video.
God bless everyone! Thanks for the heroes! True patriots.
Thank you for all you are doing to help find loved ones and the people living there.
Amen God Bless You All. For Helping These Poor Folks. We The People Will Never. Forget This Disgusting Government & This Addmistration. Worst Ever. They Will Go Down In History. As The One's That Didn't Care For America At All. Allegedly.
Much respect for these courageous people
God Bless you and your efforts.
So appreciate all you are doing!🙏🏻
So many prayers going out to these people. So many questions as to why the government is not helping them.
Few weeks after the storm hit our government was just plowing. Not even looking for a human remains. People were going live recording it and you can hear the cries of the people as our government was just plowing
Recovery this late, is easier in terms of High temperature decay rates are hard to work with, a little easier when they are colder with less decay. The Turtles and Bears made a mess for these poor recovery guys. They are driven by deeper Godlike qualities in many cases, but they are mortal themselves. Gods blessings guys, and the women helping likewise. It has lasted me a life time. I can't not Rescue or recover. Dead birds even get a little pile of dirt in my yard, for their journey to dust.
Have we gotten a body count yet and how many are mising still. Thank you for helping in this unnatural disaster.
Thank you to all those that are helping in these operations. My heart hurts for those that have missing family and friends as well as these folk who are facing such hardships to help. May the Lord richly bless each of you.
Sadly people will remain missing and not be found. Situations like this are similar to the tsunami where people were swept to sea and never found. They are buried or swept away, maybe eaten or torn to shreds by rocks and debris. We can hope and pray but must prepare for the worst and hope for the best. As for being left alone to deal with this situation, someone already said it. This will back fire and make at the least that area stronger in the long run
Amen !!!
How many bodies have the SAR teams recovered in the last 30 days?
Could you please find some auto dealership donate a heat duty truck to this man? Plus start a go fund me for this man. To help with his volunteers and him please 🙏❤✝️
Absolutely bonkers Travis😊
Absolutely BONKERS
Thanks for speaking the TRUTH alot of people, news whoever you want to say .
Thank you for these videos. Continuing prayers for you all. God bless you
God Bless the people that do this, it really takes a special breed of human to do this type of work.
Question, as of 12-27-2024 how many people are still missing from the Helene storm?
They dont really know. If there were tourists, it may take time to recognise them as missing. Any number the government gives is way under reported.
Prayers for you.
Our President should be sending in the Army Corp of Engineers. Biden would rather spend $200 billion on a war helping Ukraine. That cannot be won. I believe Trump will help these people first day in office.
Unfortunately they will be doing that for a while. May the Lord bless you all and the closure he is giving the family.
They are diving in extremely toxic water, too. Prayers for everyone. This is hard ❤
What these selfless men are doing to help makes me think of what pure religion is❤❤❤
Thank you much for all your coverage which all need to watch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly Amen They Need To See. What The Government Has Not Done For The N. C. People. & Not Only Them A Bunch Of Others Are Surffing Also. Prayers For All Of Them. God Bless Them All.
Praying for everyone. 🙏🏿 So heartbreaking. God will make away. 🙏🏿
You all need to come down on your Governor, I was watching Steve Baker who is an independent journalist do a interview on Blaze News with a gentleman thats pretty far up in the Army and he said it falls back on Y'alls Governor not asking for help, so apparently, he is Not asking for help and you ALL need to bombard his office...
Bingo 💯
Already sent my Concerns Firmly….. if a person can not perform duties of a job, it’s Time to Exit Job so a leader can take the reins !!
God bless all those people
You people are hero's, God bless
Not a single person you saw on this video will ever call themselves a hero. There are just normal God-fearing people who want to help their community.
Really important moment on your channel, thank you for bringing the truth out and taking us along on this mission to gather fallen American 🇺🇸 🫡!
It's been an honor at the same time as a nightmare. At the same time, it's been uplifting. The more people that are aware the better it is for everyone. Thanky you for following along
Much love, respect and prayers to all of you!
Good luck yall.. im in upper jacks creek and it is about to get real cold , January and feb are the worst months here - cold wet and big winds… be safe and Bless you all ❤
There are lots of concerns about more mud slides. Some of those trees are barly hanging on
@@realestatemindsetHave there been Geologist, Meteorologist, Engineers, etc. studying that landscape to solve future run offs ?
They don’t have a clue how many people are actually missing around here . They just stopped talking about it and moved the news cycle forward.
Bingo
Like Maui stated smaller number and wouldn't really tell truth
@@annawofford559Did anyone ever state WHY they can not disclose true totals of lost Loved ones in these Crisis events ?
Thank yall. I'm beyond words. I'm not political but America is my country. God will see us through. Prayers faith and hope brings the right ones together. 😊
Still possible because the Government, 💯 % let us down. The people of Appalachia, the people of Maui, Hawaii, the people of every tragic accident, the past 4 years, mostly the people of the USA. Stay blessed and take care Travis and family.
Keep supporting these people in need. Bravo volunteers for assists.
Does anyone on the ground have an updated count of how many died in the region from the hurricane. Google, keeps reporting the same 103, from months ago.
I don’t have an exact number here, but we have had ice chests with remains being kept in coolers. I hate to say it, but the numbers are upwards of 1000
Probably more than 1000 so sad!!
@@HerBeautysInsideOutwayyyy more than 1000. There were refrigerated trucks in series, hauling bodies to the east in the early days.
I’d say it’s closer to a million
@HerBeautysInsideOut I have heard that they originally ordered 10,000 body bags. An later ordered 10,000 more. Doesn't mean they used that many for bodies, could have been a bunch lost or damaged in some way. But your right it could easily be a 1,000 or more, they are still finding lots of signs of bodies under piles of stuff.
Need to bring groups like chaos Divers, exploring with nug etc out to help. They have all of the equipment to help search and rescue
They probably will not do it for free. It's hard to get people to help with the right skills.
@ head over to their channels and they usually have a contact email. Another one is HeavyD they’ve been helping people out also
Exploring with Nug is already out there.@@realestatemindset
Bless all involved!!
Travis, you personally, have highlighted many teams. How many bodies have you personally witnessed these teams locate/recover?
I've been in the field roughly 29 days. Of which I was on 5, maybe 6 recovery missions. Confirmed human remains from 2 of the 6 missions. Another roughly 30 different hits may be more counting the aqua eye. The really depressing thing about this, depending on the county, the authorities don't allow digging depending on the county. We have to hand off the finds to the authorities. Then, the authorities stop communicating about the finds. The disrespect and lack of communication is an absolute disgrace. The hits and marks I'm talking about where done with official HRD dogs. Not the dogs they are finding dead animals and marking them. The first recovery took the SAR team about 16 days just to recover one small part. I believe you were there for part of that process. In this case, they were allowed to dig after they got the permits. The remains were sent off to DNA testing, which could take 6 weeks to 2 years. All reasons why the government needs to step in and handle this. Not citizens going broke doing the cities job.
@ exactly why I asked the question. This admin is pathetic as it is but Trump ain’t gonna help either. Surely, goes deep….

Just how do you know that the incoming president and team will do nothing!!?
@@meredithheadquist6657 thank you for the question. I know bcuz the incoming POTUS is one of them. Just ask me how I know. 😉
@@realestatemindsetHow can you force Gov’t to help in this particular recovery ?
Your videos are huge. Please give names I keep them on my prayer list. Thank you for not stopping
Everyone knows this and other disasters were man made and why to these poor people and maui and paradise and many others . We arent as stupid as they think and God is about to turn things on them
Amen to that !
God Bless You for doing this very sad and tiring work and those also who have been able to help in all the different ways they have. I pray that continues. My heart so aches for everyone affected by Helene. No mention of FEMA. People have given up on any assisstance from them. And this administration has nothing to say I guess. Much love from WA state.
Sad that 9 people are still missing over 3 months later from Avery county ( 2 ) buncombe ( 3 ) Mitchell ( 1 ) and yancey ( 3 )
May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ protect, guide and bless y'all throughout your day. Amen.
True American Patriots. I'm sure President Trump, as soon as he gets in office, will recognize your AMAZING efforts.😊❤😂😂😂❤
In between his rounds of golf
And his dinners with Kim, Putin....and the rest of his buddies....
Shame on you trolling this. President Trump was boots on the ground 24 hours after the storm ended. He met with Franklin Graham and presented several $mil to start the rescue. By the time Kamala showed up everyone had been boots on the ground for a couple weeks. Biden never showed up. VP Vance grew up in Appalachia.
If you have nothing good to offer better don't criticize.
Maga is on the way! 💕
Let’s be Positive for yr 2025 New Leader of America. Voice your concerns Now to Him (Trump website).
Please you all who are helping!!! Watched video that says No bodies are being discovered!!! I believe the no folks are lying!?
12-28
4 people were just found in a vehicle after the searchers followed bear tracks...😢😢😢😢
Hi Travis, hope all is well with you. Im concerned about Lewis,he doesn't really sound good. Please keep an eye on him. God Bless each and every one of you.
He was sick that day but he's doing pretty much 💯 now.
Im from the area its a damn shame we have no federal or state help God bless all y'all for helping us!
Blessings on these rescue people having find those that are missing .
You are doing far more than our so called government didn't even attempt to do .prayers for your safety and well being .
There is money allocated that just passed the congress bill so that might be just what is needed. Good job guys keep going. Travis you did a great job filming this carry on:).?
My Dad would have been there beside you and his name was Lewis also!!!!
Where is your wonderful President Biden that all of you voted for,you wanted him,you got him.
The next president will care even less.
1) Biden cheated, 2) Biden has dementia so Obama is running everything & he is known for NOT being compassionate; 3) FEMA is a money laundering operation and has been since at least 2005.
I definitely did Not vote for Biden, he wasn’t qualified in my eyes !!!!
@@rosscyn1959you are so full of it! He donated $25000000, that’s 25 million dollars!!! That’s a lot for someone that doesn’t care!
@3929Cindy please cite your source. All I see online is one individual posting this info and an article about a donor giving MAGA PAC $25 million as a campaign contribution.
Why the heck can't they change the laws for missing people in this case. Yes, I know there will be some who take advantage, but geeze! Look at all the other corruption in our world-especially in our government! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It’s hurtful, cause NO ONE INTERFEARED….,HOW NOBODY STEP IN … OMG😮
So you all are experienced in searches and in dives for souls. Impressive. I follow these teams!!
Totally Bonkers 😮 Thanks for important information 👍
This is criminal. These people have been essentially abandoned. I totally respect this TSAR team however they need way more help. It is shocking and appalling. These people should not be scrambling to get equipment. It is good you are covering this because nobody would guess how this catastrophe is being handled. Just videotaping with minimal narration is best. That way nobody can accuse you of having an agenda. Truly reprehensible that more help is not coming. My God this is horrendous. Heartbreaking. These people are risking their lives and frankly it is too dangerous. Not that the missing do not deserve to be found. But if someone dies in the mission it would be more tragedy. That is a river of tears. And more bad weather is coming in next 2 weeks to NC and TN. Try to give out sleeping bags. Nobody should be in a tent. I think they won't survive. Call your senators and congressmsmen. This situation is very dire and hazardous.
Thank you for your determination and love...❤️✝️
These are true heroes. I will pray that the SAR teams will continue to be strong and continue this crucial mission.
The Governor should be recalled, he is supposed to request the federal assistance. If they are not there, the Gov didn't provide for it.
Always Great Content
Is there anyone bringing a lawsuit against our federal government or anyone in state government for this failure to act?
Lord have mercy . 😢😢😢.
Thank you for continuing the search. Did they find any bodies in that day?
God BLESS U ALL! LOVE 2 B able 2 do this!
It's so sad. The amount of destruction is unbelievable but the amount of progress shows how much we can accomplish together.
