Airmen with the Oregon Air National Guard’s 270th Air Traffic Control Squadron at Kingsley Field Air National Guard Base in Klamath Falls set up equipment July 17, 2017, for a mobile tower and a tactical air navigation system to allow for air traffic control operations during the Patriot North 2017 Exercise at the Young Air Assault Trip at Fort McCoy, Wis. The work included placing in grounding wires and navigational aids. Patriot North is a training exercise designed for civilian emergency management and responders to work with military entities in the same manner that they would during disasters. The exercise tests the National Guard’s abilities to support response operations based on simulated emergency scenarios, such as a strong storm bringing high winds and the storm surge creating a collapsed building, mass casualties, and the need for search and rescue along with evacuations of injured.
