Prepare for the training site
Training & visits.
Coordinate reporting, site access and allocated facilities with your unit and the responsible site office before travel. Family support arrangements depend on your duty status.
Identify the Salinas training destination
The Guard’s 2026 CERFP report locates Camp Santiago Joint Training Center in Salinas. Use the installation and course name together when confirming your reporting instructions.
Ask the training host for the report date, required documents and packing list. A general National Guard directory cannot replace the instructions for a specific course or exercise.
Have the training coordinator confirm sleeping arrangements, meal provision and authorized alternatives. Resolve arrival outside the reporting window before booking separate accommodation.
Do not mistake exercise medicine for a public clinic
The March 2026 event involved disaster-response training, including medical triage and decontamination. It does not establish routine patient appointments for visitors or family members.
Planning guidance expanded November 6, 2026 using the cited official service pages and, where direct access was restricted, indexed official text. Individual evidence dates distinguish this planning check from earlier history and image reviews. This is an online editorial review, not a phone call, site visit or official endorsement. Confirm current procedures, eligibility and availability with the responsible office.
