Team effort

An Eglin firefighter and a Northwest Florida Regional Airport employee evaluate a victim of a simulated aircraft fire as medical personnel walk to the next victim during a mass casualty exercise at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport April 19. The scenario called for emergency units from Eglin, Okaloosa County and the airport to respond to an aircraft on fire containing more than 40 passengers. Response, communication and accountability were among many procedures under evaluation at the exercise. Inside the airport, employees were tested on their response to an influx of friends and family members (of the simulated victims) looking for information about the accident. The Federal Aviation Administration mandates this type of major accident exercise execution every three years. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
