ABERDEEN, MD—Loud noise alert!

Military weapons and watercraft will be visible during daytime and nighttime hours. Residents may hear weapons firing and see flashes or light visible off post from illumination devices. These operations are not hazardous to residents in surrounding communities and are integral to ensuring continued readiness of service members.

Organizations on APG take measures to mitigate instances when training or testing becomes problematic to residents off the installation. Officials monitor the weather and the noise readings continuously throughout each day.
