MORRIS AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Ariz. — The Air National Guard (ANG) Inspector General’s (IG) office led a 5-day training, known as a Counter CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) All Hazards Management Response (CAMR) course, that culminated in an emergency response exercise at Morris Air National Guard Base June 13-17.
Civilian and military instructors from across the country joined members of the 162nd Wing at the Morris Air National Guard base to provide a series of training opportunities. From barricaded personnel to casualty care, the instructors teamed up to provide real-life scenarios aimed at equipping Airmen with the tools to respond to and manage emergency incidents at or near the base.
“This course and training exercise allowed participants to cultivate their skillsets and focus on areas that are most critical to mitigating the loss of life, loss of property and damage to the environment during a CBRN and emergency response,” said Capt. Nishitkumar Patel, Director of Inspections. “Additionally, it provided the opportunity for an expert and external assessment of the 162nd Wing’s response to an all hazard incident,” he said.
