A soldier from 911th U.S. Army Technical Rescue Engineer Company drills more holes in a concrete barrier in order to make it easier to breach the wall in order for his team to move further through the simulated collapsed structure in their search for "victims" who were trapped in the collapse during the joint 72-hour technical rescue training operation with the 911th U.S. Army Technical Rescue Engineer Company at Downey Responder Training Facility. The two units take the opportunity to train together to build a good working relationship and familiarity of each other’s capabilities and limitations. Since both units cover the National Capitol Region, in the event of a disaster both units would work side by side.
