The Department of National Defence is warning residents about a large-scale, multi-agency emergency training exercise that's taking place in various locations across the Comox Valley this week.
On Wednesday, 19 Wing Comox will be working with a slew of first responder agencies, including police, firefighters, paramedics and search and rescue teams, to conduct a joint training exercise.
The exercise will take place at Air Force Beach, the North Island Hospital, 19 Wing Comox and 19 Wing fitness Centre, among other locations. The training will include smoke and a large number of emergency services on the airfield at Air Force Beach. Aircraft wreckage will also be placed on the airfield ahead of the simulation, and some people will be acting as casualties in the exercise.
"Residents are reminded that these activities are routine military and emergency services training, and there is no need to report them to 19 Wing Comox or local emergency services," said 19 Wing Comox in a release Monday.The exercise was co-designed by the Comox Valley Emergency Department, which will be coordinating the training.
