Vibrant Response reaches new heights with emergency deployment readiness exercises
U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers with Task Force-76 work together to load equipment onto a truck during an Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercise at the Columbus Municipal Airport in Columbus, Indiana, May 2, 2023. EDREs allow active duty, National Guard, and reserve components to practice their response capability in support of simulated chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive events. EDREs coincide with Vibrant Response to evaluate the efficiency of mobilizing personnel, equipment, and resources for CBRNE response at a moment’s notice. (U.S. Army Photo by Spc. Noelani Revina)
