Emergency response drill Saturday at Offutt Air Force Base

Offutt Air Force Base is conducting its annual Major Accident Response Exercise Saturday.

The drill takes place from 9am to 4pm. It’s done to test readiness and procedures.

A news release from 55th Wing Public Affairs says the community may see clouds of smoke, hear loud noises, and see emergency helicopters and vehicles responding to the Base. It’s only a drill, and the public shouldn’t be alarmed.
