READINESS EXERCISES

This Emergency Readiness Planning  information will assist you in developing your own Emergency Readiness Response Plan. 

This site serves as a common resource for all Auxiliarists: For those who just need to become familiar with Emergency Readiness and for those who develop and manage Readiness Response Plans on their Flotilla, Division and District levels.

You will find examples of existing "Guidelines", "Scenarios for Drills", "Surge Plans", "District, Division and Flotilla level Plans", "Auxiliary Leadership Commentaries".

Plans are needed to conceptualize what to do and how to do.  But it must not end there! Drills are absolutely necessary to determine if the plan is practical and to teach all Auxiliarists  what to do in an emergency call-up.  Properly devised plans and drills will provide for your unit and for the USCG an accurate accounting of Ready Resources to be counted upon in the event of an emergency.
