Keesler students play roles in airport’s disaster drill
Firefighters from the Air National Guard Combat Readiness Training Center in
Gulfport escort Airman Basic Stacie Ahlers to a triage area to receive medical treatment for her “injuries” during a simulated aircraft crash exercise May 10. Airman Ahlers, 332nd Training Squadron, was one of 50 students from the 81st Training Group who participated in the Gulfport- Biloxi International Airport’s tri-annual full scale disaster drill. The drill, which tests the airport’s emergency plan, is part of its certification process and involves several federal, state and local agencies. (U.S. Air Force photo by Kemberly Groue)
