ROBINS AIR FORCE BAE, Ga. --  The base will conduct a number of readiness exercises next week.

The exercises will evaluate, among other things, how the workforce and first responders react to active-shooter and hazardous-material scenarios. The active-shooter scenario will include the use of a new active-shooter alarm broadcast on the base's Giant Voice message   system.

The alarm is a 15-second attack warning signal followed by the words "Lockdown, lockdown, lockdown."
