HAMPTON (AP) — Officials plan to hold a drill next week to test Fort Monroe’s readiness for terrorism.
Fort Monroe’s anti-terrorism officer Bill Moisant says the emergency-response exercises will be held August 17th.
He says people entering the Army base can expect thorough security checks at gates, restrictions near emergency-response drill sites and temporary closure of some customer-service activities.
Moisant says the exercise could involve Hampton police and fire officials as well as other agencies.
