the U.S. Army is trained and ready to respond to a chemical, biological, radiological, or
nuclear incident.
The exercise is coordinated by U.S. Army Reserve 78th Training Division, which brings
together soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines from the Active, Guard and Reserve
components as well as Department of Defense civil service employees and contractors.
