The National Capital Region Incident Management Team conducted a 3 day Logistics training Workshop last week. The NCR-IMT is made of of Incident Command professionals from government agencies in Maryland, DC, and Virginia. The workshop focused on sharing best practices with Incident Command professionals from the National Capital Region-IMT, Hampton Roads-IMT, and Central Virginia- IMT as well as the Virginia Communications Cache, Virginia Department of Emergency Management and the FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Training topics ranged from setting up an Incident Command Post to utilizing software programs for Incident Command in austere environments.

Our morning was spent monitoring and preparing for an imminent response into Florida once Hurricane Dorian passes and conditions are safe for travel. Placing our Team ID on our vehicles as security tightens.

While Dorian spent the day making landfall in the Bahamas, our team continued to research, develop plans, and trainâ especially with our new friends from The University of Oklahoma! Our Incident Commander even presented them with team challenge coins. Weâre so grateful for this new partnership.
