Wyoming National Guard members are returning home after participating in Utah's earthquake drill this week. The drill was the largest ever done in the state and involved mass evacuations, mock patients at hospitals and the deployment of 400 soldiers. The drill scenario called for a 7-magnitude quake, which occurs on the Wasatch Front about every 350 years. The Wyoming Guard sent 48 members to help out. Members helped process and deploy military units during the drill with help from the Wyoming Joint Force Headquarters Operations Center in Cheyenne.
