We had a communications excercise this morning involving threats at various venues. Our mission was to establish communications support and interoperability between different agencies including FBI, Homeland Security, ATF, and local police, fire, and bomb units as well as link in the other incident locations. Basically, we give everyone the ability to talk to one another.
One component of the scenario was the requirement of mission critical equipment that needed to be on the scene as soon as possible. That's where me and Ivan got a ride from the US Park Police helicopter: Eagle 2. They picked us up in Gaithersburg and we were at our scene location within 10 minutes.
I LOVE MY JOB!
