This week, the U.S. Army North is preparing for the worst, at least as far as hurricanes are concerned.

Ft. Belvior is hosting a step-by-step hurricane response drill this month that will bring together a host of state and federal agencies to test their disaster contingency plans before the June 1 start of hurricane season.

FederalNewsRadio talked with several members of the drill team: Stephen DeBlasio, Albie Lewis and Col. Robert Freehill.
