Excerpt:

Utility crews and their trucks are driving into the New York area from all parts of the country, including some teams from California that will arrive in three to five days after driving cross country  on flat bed trailers. To accelerate the repairs, the Federal Emergency Management Agency asked the Pentagon to transport 69 vehicles from Southern California Edison into the hard hit areas of the east coast. Air Mobility Command arranged for five huge  C-5 cargo planes and 12 C-17 aircraft  from a dozen bases across the country to travel to March Air Reserve Base in Riverside, Calif. , where they would pick up the equipment to be taken east. Air crews worked all night Wednesday to load 60 passengers and approximately 632 tons of equpiment and supplies onto the aircraft  bound for New York.
