For me, it seems like it will be the same type of rebuild effort as when Andrew hit South Florida.
Except of course you're dealing with islands instead of the mainland - which will require extra logistics and coordination.
Factor in also The Bahamas are not part of the US, so they are not eligible for the same federal aid.
That said, it looks like so far there are plenty of parties stepping up and stepping in to assist with the effort.
I think there are many who have been through this before and that knowledge will be very useful.
Sorry to hear of your loss, Neil.
