“I’ve just reviewed the After-Action Report of Oregon’s exercise [prepared by E & E], and it was very well written.  You took great care to analyze the steps you took, you reviewed how they are mirrored in the plan, and you prepared concrete steps to improve Oregon’s processes. (Really, this is one of the best AARs I’ve seen.  These are usually self-congratulatory and banal—your AAR is realistic and clear.)  I’ve sent a copy of your AAR to the [CDC] exercise group, and have strongly recommended that we make some changes in the preparation of the PPG inventory list.”—Nikki Economou, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
