Terrorists have threatened to attack Parris Island.
The terrorist, part of the disaster drills on this week's S.C. National Guard's Vigilant Guard exercise, plan to attack Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning.
This week more than 3,000 guardsmen and other emergency response teams flocked to Beaufort County to participate in a drill simulating the aftermath of a large earthquake.
Beaufort County mayors, council members and other officials met in the media tent to get briefing on the evolving plot of the disaster drill.

The S.C. National Guard Vigilant Guard's disaster drill takes responding to a disaster beyond death.
During the week, more than 3,000 National Guardsmen are working with local and state emergency responders to address the aftermath of a mock earthquake.
And, part of natural disaster includes dead people.
"Normally drills just end when someone is identified as dead," said Beaufort County deputy coroner Edward Allen, who was manning the drill's field morgue that is set up on the top of a hill.

This is my first experience eating a meal-ready-to-eat, or more commonly MRE. So, if you have not had the pleasure of trying one of the new MRE's I'll share mine.
I showed Tuesday morning for a 24-hour stay with the S.C. National Guard to cover the Vigilant Guard disaster drill for the newspaper. The drill, a massive earthquake which sparks several other events, is meant to test local, state and federal emergency response systems.
Half-way through the day my fellow reporters and I were taken back to the media tent for lunch.

S.C. National Guard removes person from the pile of rubble

Thursday morning, the Holiday Inn has collapsed leaving people trapped beneath concrete and dirt. That's the day's scenario for the pile of rubble the S.C. National Guard is using as part of its week-long Vigilant Guard disaster drill in Beaufort County.
Broken hunks of concrete, rebar and dirt rest in the middle of an open field.
"Get me out of here," a man strewn across the top of the pile screams.

Four people wearing "role player" neon green tags are rushed to the front of the Air National Guard's Expeditionary Medical Support, or EMED, at 9 a.m.

The other two have injuries that are not as easily spotted from the sidelines.They are directed off a bus to a tent with open sides where the guardsmen are able to assess the situation.
