    Rescue technicians assigned to the Alabama National Guard’s 1152nd and 1153rd Firefighting Team Detachment evacuate mock casualties following a simulated catastrophic nuclear detonation during a homeland response field exercise at Camp Atterbury, Ind., Aug. 8, 2012. U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Jeff W. Mathis III, commander, Joint Task Force Civil Support recently told about 125 defense and homeland response leaders that working more closely with state and local response agencies will allow for more realistic response planning and, ultimately “provide a much more holistic view across the nation and how we would respond to a CBRN incident.” JTF-CS provides command and control for Department of Defense CBRN response forces to assist local, state, federal and tribal partners in saving lives, preventing further injury and providing critical support to enable community recovery.
