Members of AAACERT once again demonstrated their commitment to community readiness during Citadel Shield–Solid Curtain 2025, a major annual security exercise held at the U.S. Naval Academy.
Volunteers suited up as injured role‑players, complete with realistic moulage and scenario‑based injuries, helping first responders and military personnel practice critical triage and emergency response skills under pressure. Their participation added authenticity to the drill, ensuring teams could train in conditions that closely mirror real‑world emergencies.
These exercises demand flexibility, patience, and a willingness to jump into unusual roles — and AAACERT volunteers never hesitate. Their efforts helped strengthen preparedness across the installation, contributing to a safer and more resilient community.
