PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE — A specialized military unit to respond quickly to nuclear, chemical, biological or other catastrophes will be activated today.
The 4,700-person force is trained for search and rescue, decontamination, medical care, aviation, communications and logistics.
It’s called a Consequence Management Force and includes personnel from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Two similar units are scheduled to start up in the next two years.
