Joint Task Force Civil Support
April 24, 2024 | 1:13
U.S. Army Maj. Servando Santiago, executive officer of 555th Engineer Brigade, explains Task Force Operations's role in the Vibrant Response 24 exercise at the Mission Training Center at Fort Carson, Colorado, on April 24, 2024. Vibrant Response is an annual U.S. Northern Command directed command post exercise. As U.S. Northern Command's Joint Force Land Component Command, U.S. Army North is Vibrant Response 24's executive agent responsible for ensuring the training focuses on a simulated Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) disaster scenario designed to validate U.S. Northern Command's CBRN Response Enterprise's ability to exercise short-notice and no-notice deployment of military forces at the request of civil authorities to save lives, alleviate human suffering, and mitigate property damage following a catastrophic CBRN event.
