Vibrant Response 13 is a major incident exercise conducted by U.S. Northern Command and led by U.S. Army North. More than 9,000 service members and civilians are taking part in the exercise from July 25-Aug. 13 at Camp Atterbury and 10 other training areas and airfields in southern Indiana and northern Kentucky.
