Steve Dancer, emergency manager, Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany, briefs Col. James C. Carroll III, commanding officer, MCLB Albany, during Hurricane Exercise 16 aboard the installation, May 17. The exercise scenario was focused on a category 3 hurricane making a simulated landfall on the Florida Pan Handle and moving into and across Georgia toward the East Coast. MCLB Albany officials focused on the impact the hurricane may have on units that have memorandum of agreements with the installation, according to Dancer. “These units may have to evacuate from their home station and use Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany as their ‘safe haven’,” Dancer said. “This is the first time that all of the units from the Pensacola, Florida, area were actually able to come together and conduct their site survey, memorandum of agreements review and participate in a table top exercise.” Dancer added the exercise was a success and will pave the way for future "safe haven" operations.
