This is kind of interesting.......

"U.S. Northern Command is planning a large-scale exercise in late August (coinciding w/ Red Flag Exercises) that will focus on using Defense Dept. resources to support civil authorities responding to a terrorism incident. Scheduled to take place in southern Nevada (perhaps Indian Springs?),"DETERMINED PROMISE '03" will be structured around Northcomm's military assistance to civil authorities (MACA) mission, and include county, state and Homeland Security Dept. players. The planned scenario involves a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive event. Local civil authorities will handle initial responses, and they will call for federal and Defense Dept/Northcomm aisstance as necessary."

Lot of action this August.
