“In a domestic operation situation it don’t matter if it’s the Air or the Army, the public needs us to come as one team with one fight and to help relieve whatever situation is going on.”-Major General Tommy Baker, Deputy Adjutant General of the Tennessee National Guard

From the end of May 2019, thru the beginning of June 2019, the U.S. military held a multi-state (Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee) National Guard/local responder exercise called Shaken Fury, in preps for a major New Madrid Seismic Zone event.

One of the things Guard personnel trained for was reacting without any prior notice (called a ‘no-notice’ response). The main purpose of Shaken Fury was to identify potential problem areas for local disaster response.

Simulated roof-top rescue, obviously they expect homes to fall victims to liquifaction.
It should be noted that the U.S. government, through Department of Homeland Security, pushed for the Shaken Fury training as part of a FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) policy called Emergency Support Function 14-Long-Term Community Recovery: “Understanding how disruptions cascade across infrastructure, and the role of private industry in responding and stabilizing our systems, is particularly important in major disasters such as the one we are exercising in Shaken Fury. This cross-sector understanding is what CISA aims to provide through the newly established Emergency Support Function number 14.”-Brian Harrell, Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
