Alpha, Beta or Gamma?

Radiation Drill at Rex. Our practice run was yesterday, you know day 8 of 8 for me! We had class time in the morning and then lunch before running through the drill with evaluators from Progress-Energy and Shearin Harris. Of course we all look wonderful before the radiation suits....well...some of us do!

We had peeps from the ER, radiology (who the heck else is going to measure our levels of radiation?), MD's and Security. We had a great group of people and everyone worked really well together.

Putting on our suits was hilarious. Michael was across from me and as he picked up his left leg to stretch his pants, I noticed that he busted the seam in his crotch! I started laughing and I told Trey, as I am trying to keep from crying, Trey says 'Well, we know where the radiation is going!". That made me laugh even more. I didn't get a picture of the 'rip' but I should have.

All and all we did great and the real test is on August27th when we run through the 'real' thing and are evaluated by FEMA!
