FORT HOOD, Texas - The 13th Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) will conduct a series of “active shooter” force protection exercises in their unit footprint in the vicinity of Support Avenue and 62nd and 67th Streets here at various times between Nov. 4-9, during regular military working hours (6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
The purpose of the exercise is to test members of the unit on what they have learned during past training sessions on how to react in case of an active shooter incident.
Once again, this will be an exercise only - please don’t be alarmed if you hear about certain buildings being on a brief shutdown.
The exercise should not interfere with any Fort Hood traffic. The exact dates and times of the exercises are purposefully not disclosed at this time, so that soldiers are truly tested on how to react in certain situations.
The event is not open to the media.
