The North Carolina Emergency Reserves (NCER) is seeking leaders
for the area of the 2nd Brigade, which encompasses the western
half of the state.
NCER is a statewide volunteer disaster-response organization.
Initially, NCER wants to identify qualified candidates for
the position of regimental commanders. Ideal candidates should
have extensive experience in either the military or public safety
fields, good organizational skills, and a desire to serve the
people of North Carolina in time of disaster.
Also being sought are unit commanders for battalion-sized
units, which would cover a one or two county area within the
regiment. The organization is headquartered in Fayetteville,
near Fort Bragg, and the Western (2nd) Brigade currently has
an active 1st Battalion in the 55th RGT, commanded by LTC Mike
Hancock.
NCER currently has the state divided into areas of two brigades,
which encompass a total of seven regiments.
Members receive free training in many areas of emergency and
preparedness skills, including a wide assortment of FEMA courses.
