An earthquake or volcanic eruption can saturate local medical

responsible authorities turn to when the masses of injured
persons start to flow in? MEDI+SHIPS International, a
non-profit organization being created by R.J. Godlewski, will
provide just such services. Taking a cue from the standby
rescue vessel employed by the offshore oil industry,
MEDI+SHIPS units will be stationed within defined operating
areas throughout the world. When disaster strikes, volunteer
and paid medical personnel will augment those aboard the
vessels and the ships will arrive as near to the disaster
scene as permissible
