Battle drills condition emergency responders
Senior Airman Krista McVicar practices tightening her oxygen mask March 26 at Balad Air Base, Iraq, during an emergency management drill. Emergency managers wear protective suits and breathe through air tanks to guard against chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear substances that may be present during a real-world attack. Emergency management Airmen conduct battle drills to keep their skills sharp and ensure they are familiar with wearing all the required gear. Airman McVicar is a 332nd Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron emergency manager deployed from Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Julianne Showalter)
