The NDMS exercise is a unique opportunity for our members to offer their assistance in a multi-agency exercise headed up by the US Army. Since many of our members also have disaster animal response training, ham radio, litter bearer training, and can patient act with the best of them, this volunteer opportunity is ideal for many. We hope some of our members, who are afforded the time to take off work for one day, will consider doing so. As always, thanks for all you do.
