This year, ARDENT SENTRY is being executed as part of the National Exercise

The NEP Capstone Exercise 2014 links national, regional and state-sponsored
exercises into a "one exercise/ one-world" environment for the purposes of
operational management, resource allocation and decision-making.
ALASKA SHIELD 14 commemorates the anniversary of the 1964 9.2 Magnitude
Great Alaskan Earthquake by replicating its effects which resulted in
significant damage and creating a corresponding tsunami which impacted the
Pacific Northwest. Multiple agencies in the State of Alaska are
participating in several field training events throughout the state.
ARCTIC EDGE 14 is a major U.S. Northern Command exercise conducted in
cooperation with the State of Alaska Division of Homeland Security and
Emergency Management and other federal, state and local agencies. The major
objective of the exercise is to give federal, state and local authorities
the opportunity to operate together in a natural disaster scenario requiring
an interagency response. In addition, this training will better prepare DoD
elements, especially those who will be part of Joint Task Force-Alaska, to
respond to requests for assistance from U.S. civil authorities.
The exercises will take place March 27 - April 3, 2014. show less
