Richard Giusti, battalion chief, San Antonio Fire

Richard Giusti, battalion chief, San Antonio Fire Department, speaks of the realism of the injuries portrayed on the mannequin “victims” while observing training Aug 12 during a Vibrant Response 13 leadership tour. Vibrant Response 13 is a major incident exercise conducted by U.S. Northern Command and led by U.S. Army North. It takes place over 5,000 square miles of training areas throughout southern Indiana and Northern Kentucky. More than 9,000 participated in the event, to include service members from all branches of the Department of Defense, along with local, state and federal teams.
