Crisis Battle Staff responds to disasters, war
Col. Constance Jenkins, Air Mobility Command Reserve Advisor to the Director of Logistics, Engineering and Force Protection, works in the AMC and 18th Air Force Crisis Battle Staff as Director during Exercise Global Thunder/Vigilant Shield at 18th AF headquarters on Scott Air Force Base, Nov. 5, 2015. The Crisis Battle Staff is a collection of experts drawn from across AMC and 18th AF that activates on a round-the-clock basis to address a specific crisis. The CBS team is supposed to be fully functional within an hour of being recalled to support the 18th AF commander during crises ranging from natural disasters to nuclear war.
