Currently based at Fort Eustis in Virginia, JTF-CS is mandated to provide command and control for Department of Defense assets in the event of a chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear attack on American soil and to manage the consequences of any such incidents. In that contingency, JTF-CS would assume control of select and specialized U.S. Department of Defense forces in order to assist federal, local, and state governments in a variety of ways—saving civilian lives, preventing injuries, containing damage, and supporting continuous community recovery.
JTF-CS employs military and civilian personnel. Visit the JTF-CS website at www.jtfcs.northcom.mil for more information on available opportunities.
