    More than 500 members of the California National Guard participated in the Vigilant Guard earthquake-response exercise Nov. 12-18, including the 40th Military Police Brigade Homeland Response Force, 9th Civil Support Team, 129th Rescue Wing and 146th Airlift Wing. They collaborated with hundreds of partners from the Nevada National Guard, Arizona National Guard, Army North, Los Angeles County Fire Department, California Governor's Office of Emergency Services, FEMA and a wide range of local organizations such as the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, Irvine Police Department and the Orange County Community EmergencyResponse Team. It was a great example of interagency cooperation and preparedness for when disaster strikes. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Brandon Honig)

    Military personnel in U.S. Army ACU (Army Combat Uniform) camouflage are conducting a search and rescue training exercise. They are using a tripod hoist system to extract a simulated casualty secured in an orange rescue litter/basket. Personnel are equipped with gas masks labeled 'TRNG' (training) and various rescue equipment.
    A soldier in US Army camouflage uniform and red hard hat is measuring or marking a plywood sheet on sawhorse workbenches outdoors. He is holding a yellow ruler/measuring stick and appears to be engaged in construction or structural assessment work. Two individuals in dark uniforms are visible in the background near a white van, with arid mountainous terrain behind them.
    The image is taken from inside a large aircraft cargo bay looking outward through the open rear ramp. Outside, a fire engine and a white utility vehicle are visible on a gravel surface, with several personnel in yellow firefighting gear standing nearby. The scene appears to be an industrial or training facility with storage tanks and a large metal structure, set against a mountainous backdrop.
    A large group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered on a gravel area in a desert/mountainous environment. A red Los Angeles Fire Department engine (Unit 143) is parked to the left. The gathering appears to be a briefing, exercise, or coordination event involving both military and civilian personnel.

    A U.S. Army soldier in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) camouflage is speaking with a civilian emergency responder or fire department official wearing a dark navy uniform and cap. They appear to be coordinating at what looks like a demolition or disaster site, with rubble visible to the left and a red fire engine parked nearby. The setting suggests an inter-agency emergency response or training exercise.
    Three military personnel are standing outdoors in an arid, mountainous environment. Two individuals appear to be wearing U.S. military uniforms (OCP/MultiCam and ABU patterns), while the third wears a different camouflage pattern consistent with an African nation's military. They appear to be engaged in conversation, with one person gesturing.
    Military or special operations personnel are conducting what appears to be a training exercise at an outdoor facility.

One individual is gesturing directionally while others prepare the medical evacuation equipment.
    The image shows a multi-agency emergency response or training exercise involving Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel and military soldiers. A firefighter in a white helmet and navy shirt stands near a Los Angeles County Fire vehicle marked 'TL1255C', observing soldiers working with ropes and rescue equipment on the ground. The scene appears to be an outdoor training or disaster response operation in a dry, semi-arid environment.
    A military or tactical personnel in full combat gear stands at the edge of a steep cliff or ridgeline, overseeing a rope/chain rigging operation in an arid, hilly terrain. A second individual is visible lower on the slope, apparently secured by the rigging system. The setting appears to be a training exercise or field operation in a dry, mountainous region with a small facility visible in the valley below.
    Two personnel in military/tactical camouflage uniforms and helmets are carrying a folded litter/stretcher in a rugged desert canyon environment. A crashed or disabled vehicle is visible in the background at the base of a steep sandy hillside. A rope or cable system is visible in the foreground, suggesting a rope rescue or recovery operation is underway.
    Military or special operations personnel in multicam/camouflage uniforms and flight helmets are conducting a medical evacuation exercise on a hilltop in an arid, mountainous environment. A simulated casualty is secured on a Stokes litter/basket stretcher while team members attend to the patient and manage equipment. Observers in civilian and fire department attire watch from the background, suggesting this is a joint training exercise.
    A military helicopter, appearing to be a UH-60 Black Hawk, hovers low over a training facility in an arid, dusty environment. Personnel can be seen on the ground and what appears to be a soldier rappelling or being inserted from the helicopter near a tall metal training tower. The scene suggests a military fast-rope or rappel training exercise at a dedicated training installation.
    The image shows a military medical tent setup, likely during a training exercise or demonstration. Several personnel in different military uniforms are gathered around field stretchers with simulated patients, while a civilian cameraman documents the scene. The setting appears to be a forward operating base or field hospital environment.
    Military personnel in various uniforms are gathered inside a large field medical tent during what appears to be a training exercise or drill. Multiple mannequins or simulated casualties are positioned on military stretchers/litters, with a prominent figure in an olive flight suit wearing a US flag patch standing near them. The setting suggests a mass casualty triage or field hospital exercise.
    Two military personnel in U.S. Army camouflage uniforms (ACU pattern) are working inside a partially constructed or damaged structure with exposed wooden framing. One soldier wears a white hard hat and the other wears a red hard hat with a mounted headlamp, suggesting a search and rescue or urban operations training exercise. A third person in military uniform is partially visible on the right side of the frame.
    A soldier in military camouflage uniform and red hard hat is using a circular saw to cut a large sheet of plywood on sawhorses in an outdoor setting. Several observers, including what appear to be law enforcement personnel, watch in the background. The scene appears to be a training exercise or demonstration, likely on a military base or controlled area.
    A team of urban search and rescue (USAR) personnel are working atop a collapsed concrete structure surrounded by rubble. The responders are equipped with helmets, protective gear, and power tools including what appears to be a concrete-cutting chainsaw or rotary saw. The scene appears to be either an active disaster response or a training exercise set against a mountainous backdrop.
    Military personnel in U.S. Army combat uniforms are conducting a confined space rescue training exercise, using a tripod rigging system over what appears to be a manhole or underground access point. Several soldiers wearing red and white safety helmets are actively working the rescue equipment while observers and media personnel with cameras document the exercise. The setting appears to be a military training facility with hills and infrastructure visible in the background.
