Twenty-five years ago, National Guard Soldiers and Airmen from across the country proved that “Always Ready, Always There” is more than a motto as they answered the call to respond to the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks. We will never forget.

Had a great visit with the @TheCalGuard to learn more about STARBASE and the important work happening at our local armory.
Programs like STARBASE inspire the next generation of students through hands-on learning in science, technology, engineering, and math while connecting young people with opportunities to serve and lead.
Thank you to the California Military Department team for the work you do to support our communities and invest in the future.

Last week, @CA_EMSA led a 16-hour medical emergency drill to improve care and coordination in California among emergency response teams, hospitals, and military partners, including @Cal_OES + @TheCalGuard. Preparedness in action for when it matters most.

What happens when a disaster overwhelms local hospitals?
At Cal Guard’s Mather Flight Facility, a statewide exercise led by @CA_EMSA simulated a large-scale emergency that overwhelmed regional hospitals, requiring patients to be moved across the state for continued care.
The exercise tested patient movement, a temporary field hospital, and coordination between emergency medical, public health, hospital and military partners. @Cal_HHS @Cal_OES @CA_EMSA @CAgovernor @USNationalGuard
