Story by Sgt. Anthony Jones, 145th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment VERDIGRIS, Okla. Soldiers dressed in hazardous materials suits sift through a suspected chemical lab while firefighters, wearing their own protective equipment closely watch nearby. The two groups are part of a large training exercise focused on building relationships between the 63rd Civil Support Team (CST) and its first responder counterparts in the Tulsa, Okla., area. The training event began with a mock chemical leak at the Tulsa Port of Catoosa and led the joint law enforcement team to a simulated terrorist camp near Verdigris, Okla. "These are the guys we will respond with if something happens," said Sgt. Warren Williams, survey and analytical team chief, 63rd CST, about the dozens of firefighters and police officers working the scene with his team. "They are the ones who will be calling us for further assistance, so it is good to have a face-toface to build a working relationship with these guys and be able to integrate seamlessly." Several large organizations planned the three-day event. Oklahoma State University University Multispectral Laboratories, Davis Defense Group and multiple first responder agencies from across the northeast Tulsa area participated in the joint exercise last week. First responder agencies included Rogers County Emergency Response, Tulsa Police Department, Tulsa Fire Department, Verdigris Fire Department, Tulsa Bomb Squad, Oklahoma Highway Patrol, 63rd CST and the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management. The 63rd CST is part of a national program of federally funded state operated teams tasked with responding to a weapon of mass destruction attack on American soil. The program began in 1998. Each state has at least one team with all teams organized into specific response regions across the United States. "This type of training is invaluable," said Sean Hagerty, a trainer with Davis Defense Group. "The lessons learned from this will carry forth into real-world response with things like what "Oklahoma City is open for we've seen with the natural dibusiness, and the announcement sasters here in Oklahoma in the that AT&T will locate additional last few months." Each phase of the training employees here is a testament that we have an environment tested the responders in their individual skills. As the initial call that fosters success. We are excited to support came about a suspected chemiAT&T in their future success cal leak at the Port of Catoosa, and growth in Oklahoma City," firefighters rushed to the scene said Mick Cornett, Mayor of and began setting up chemical decontamination sites, providing Oklahoma City. assistance to the security guards AT&T is looking for entry who simulated exposure to hazlevel management employees in Oklahoma.
