Master Sgt. Michael Ludke, a Nuclear-Biological-Chemical Warfare cell chief from the 123rd Airlift Wing of the Kentucky National Guard, upchannels information during an evacuation of his building following a simulated attack at the Gulfport Combat Readiness Training Center in Gulfport, Miss., May 20, 2010. The 123rd and two other units were being evaluated for wartime readiness as part of an Air Mobility Command Operational Readiness Inspection. The ORI was unique in that it marked the first time inspectors evaluated a unit's performance in defense of the United States, using scenarios that played out on American soil rather than a simulated overseas environment.
