TOWSON, Md. (April 20, 2012) - A massive earthquake hit the campus of Towson University today and caused hundreds of victims during a training scenario for students giving them the opportunity to work with first responders.
More than 70 members of the Maryland Military Department worked along side of students in the nursing and health professions. Hundreds of volunteers were made up to look like disaster victims.
"This mass casualty exercise will provide our students an invaluable opportunity to gain ‘hands-on’ experience in working with the military,” said Charlotte Exner, dean of the College of Health Professions. “Our students are getting real world field experience in an environment that they may have to use some day.
This was the fourth year the university’s College of Health Professions have worked with the clinicians from the Maryland Defense Force (MDDF), National Guard, Maryland Department of Mental Hygiene (DHMH) and ten other state and local agencies.
Exercise was staged in Burdick Hall and stretchers were carried into a triage area, and cots were filled with hundreds of “victims” of a simulated mass casualty.
“This exercise has been great for everyone involved,” said Col (MDDF) Stanley Shapiro, deputy chief of staff. “The coordination and team work has been seamless. Each year we get better and better.”

This is a little exercise I assigned to myself in order to practise my imagination. I started out by cutting the first best thing from a magazine. It happed to be a couple of legs which I then glued into my sketchbook without having an idea what to do with them. Well. This is what I did do with them ... If anyone has an idea for a title, please let me know.

Exercise SELVA BACKSTOP 2015 is an Personal Development Training exercise in which participants from Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps will retrace the route of Operation FRANKTON, the 1942 Commando raid to destroy German ships on the Gironde River, France, in March 2015.
The 15-strong team, comprising of soldiers and officers from the UK, USA, Canada and France, will canoe from the Bay of Biscay, 100km up the Gironde River to the port of Bordeaux then follow part of the survivors escape route, trekking from France, over the Pyrenees in to Spain. Along the way the participants will study the original Operation during discussion periods and academic sessions in Bordeaux, meeting members of the society which keeps the memory of the mission alive.
The aim of the exercise is to challenge the multi-national, tri-Service team through a combination of physical and intellectual development following the heroic actions of those who took part in Operation FRANKTON.

On Saturday 27th of Aug 2011 an Inter-Agency Exercise was held on the M8 Motorway outside Fermoy in North Cork.
THE biggest live exercise of its kind ever held in Greater Manchester – Exercise Triton II – came to an end this morning (Friday, July 16, 2016) after months of intense planning.
Around 36 organisations across the region and nationally have been taking part in this major emergency planning exercise which saw dozens of emergency vehicles at sites across Greater Manchester and Chinook helicopters flying across the skies.
The complex scenario used was designed to test how local authorities, emergency services and other partners are equipped to tackle a major emergency working together.
Participating ‘players’ also included the military, government, health and utility companies, as well as voluntary agencies.
The exercise started on Monday, July 11, 2016, with ‘warnings’ from the Met Office regarding adverse weather and from the Environment Agency about the growing risk of regional flooding.
The emergency services, including Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), and partners put procedures in place to ensure that where possible properties and critical infrastructure were protected and the public were warned. This theme was carried on through Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13, 2016.
To ensure that both players and plans were tested to their full, a dramatic scenario developed on Thursday, July 14, whereby the bank on the Dove Stone Reservoir in Oldham was breached and water cascaded through a number of boroughs within Greater Manchester.
This meant that evacuation procedures had to be put in place and rest centres set up. Later in the day, a coach ploughed into the River Tame in a mock crash and a full-scale search and rescue operation was carried out.
Paul Argyle, GMFRS’ Deputy County Fire Officer and Chair of Greater Manchester Resilience Forum, said: “Exercise Triton II was a hugely complex emergency planning exercise and I would like to thank all of the agencies that have taken part this week.
"This was a very detailed scenario which had impacts across every part of the region and necessitated a full range of partners taking part.
"The scale of the destruction and chaos in the exercise was deliberately designed to test the region at full stretch.
"We have to do this to ensure we are well prepared to deal with any future real-life event or disaster that might occur – and it is also invaluable that those taking part got the chance to practise essential response skills that would be used during a major incident like this.
"I would particularly like to thank all the volunteers who took part in this exercise. The patience and understanding of local residents and communities on Thursday (as response plans went into effect at 'live' sites) was also greatly appreciated.
“All players have now been 'stood down'. Our next task is to evaluate how the exercise went, step by step. We will want to find out what worked well and crucially to identify and learn any lessons that could help us in the future in real-life situations. I would like to point out that incidents as extreme as this are highly unlikely, but ensuring we practice our response means that we are ready to respond to a variety of scenarios."

1st MSC hosts mobilization readiness exercise
Camp Santiago, Salinas: Soldiers of the 1st Mission Support Command's Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment hosted a mobilization readiness exercise at Camp Santiago, P.R., 14-27 March.
During the event, HHD Soldiers completed readiness checks for over 1,000 Soldiers. Events such as this are commonly held annually to ensure that commanders can maintain their unit readiness.
"We try to do this as the units get closer to their available year in order to have them improve their overall readiness and mobilization posture in the event they get selected (for mobilization) down the road", said Gerardo Rodriguez, mobilization officer for the 1st MSC.
Rodriguez said MRXs help units maintain readiness for deployments but they also serve the individual Soldier.
"As part of the MRX ... there are different stations and one of them, one of the most important, is medical. A Soldier is completely checked and whatever cannot be fixed at this location ... the Soldier can go to a private (medical) provider and get that situation fixed and that helps them with their overall readiness",he said.
Soldiers rotate through eleven different stations in total where they are checked in by HHD Soldiers and efficiently move through the station. While the process has been refined over the years at times people still tend to get impatient.
Staff Sgt. Anaselly Ramos, logistics noncommissioned officer with the mobilization team, know the experience can be stressful but to help keep the level of frustration down she leads groups of Soldiers through stations when she sees openings. While each group of Soldiers is instructed to follow the schedule given to them for the MRX, Ramos' method keeps things moving along too.
Keeping track of the entire flow of Soldier traffic is a system called the mobilization plan data viewer.
"It shows all the stations and actually it runs the SRP (MRX) completely", said Spc. Hector Rodriguez, from Bayamon.
"It's tracking each Soldier by station ... you can see how many have completed (the stations) and how many have not",added Rodriguez, who is assigned to the 311th Quartermaster Company.
While the process can be tedious for the Soldiers going from station to station, one Soldier working at the medical readiness station found the MRX to be an opportunity to challenge herself by practicing her public speaking skills.
Spc. Jenniffer Gonzalez Diaz, a traffic management coordinator, who's primary language is Spanish, began giving the medical station briefings to many groups of Soldiers. Gonzalez admits that speaking English is not one of her strengths but her determination brought her recognition among her peers and even the Commanding General of the 1st MSC Brig. Gen. Fernando Fernandez.
"They gave me the opportunity to participate in this activity so I can ... help them in the system with the Soldiers, and I practiced a lot my English",said Gonzalez.
As a member of the the 390th Seaport Company, in Ceiba, Gonzalez recognizes the importance of refining her English language skills. When given the opportunity to refine her abilities when she signed up for the Army, Gonzalez participated in English language courses.
"I improved my English, I practiced my English when I took the class but I knew a little bit of the language because we are Puerto Rico and we are bilingual so we took classes when we started in (grade) school", said Gonzalez.
Gonzalez knows this isn't the only challenge she'll have to overcome in her military career, which is why she stays motivated and maintains a positive attitude.
"The important thing for me is to show people that you are trying, don't get upset, don't get mad if someone corrects you because they are helping you",she said. "If you don't know, ask, so you can learn ... the stuff you learn nobody can take away."
Regular exercise is an important step in maintaining health for people of all ages. As you age, the body becomes at greater risk for loss of muscle mass, flexibility, and balance. In that case exercise & yoga play an important role . Stay fit & Stay healthy

It's been a month of going to the gym. I'm starting to notice some changes in my body. I remember the trainer saying that in about a month you will start to notice some changes. I'm not running out of breath when I come up the stairs with a basket of laundry. I can bend down to tie my shoes with ease. My pants fit snug insted of tight. I'm to the third hole in my belt.
Today I went to the gym. I really didn't feel motivated to go because I went late. I worked on my arms today. I thought I did good today. I'll be working with a trainer every week now.
Other then that, I feel great!

Two Polish Officers, one from the Army the other Navy work along side each other during Exercise Steadfast Juncture, which took place at Okehampton camp. Members of the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC), and various other elements of NATO forces came together for Exercise Steadfast Juncture to certify that the ARRC is capable and ready to assume command of the NATO Response Force (NRF) mission throughout 2013. Taking command of the NRF means that the ARRC will be rapidly deployable and could deploy worldwide is support of combat or humanitarian relief efforts.
Exercise Javelin Chase
Brig. Tim Carmichael, commander, 1 Signal Brigade, Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (HQ ARRC), hosted Exercise Javelin Chase (EJC), July 8-9. The race was organized to raise funds to support the Help for Heroes charity.
EJC is a 24-hour running race where 8-man teams will compete to see which team will complete the most laps on a one-mile course in 24-hours. The winning team will be the team that has completed the most amounts of laps in the time period. This could vary from 150 to 200 laps.
Each team had to raise a minimum of £250 to participate in EJC.
“This is a charity race to raise money for Help for Heroes, which is a national charity that looks after the needs of injured military serving members and former service members,” said Brig. Carmichael.
He said they hope to raise a total of £5000 if not more and every single penny will be donated to Help for Heroes charity.
The event took place at the sports field behind HQ ARRC Officer’s Mess. The course was on grass and tracks with no tarmac that winds around and through the woods. As if it wasn’t going to be challenging enough to run 24-hours, the rain on opening day would make it a little more testing.
In the 24-hours a combined total of 2426.00 miles were covered, with the winning team, 299 Signal Squadron, Special Communication running 222 of those miles, and 22 Signal Regiment coming in second with 217 laps.
