Chertoff Visits Mobile Tuesday

By Associated Press

Mobile, AL – Michael Chertoff, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary, visits Mobile Tuesday afternoon to view a demonstration by the U.S. Coast Guard.

Fellow Republicans, Governor Bob Riley, Senator Jeff Sessions and Congressman Jo Bonner are expected to join Chertoff at the Coast Guard Aviation Training Facility.

Chertoff will participate in the so-called fast roping demonstration. The exercise involves using specialized forces from the Coast Guard to respond to threats and natural disasters.
