answer text <p>Military personnel are trained in a range of skills which can be applied to emergency and natural disaster response. On top of this we routinely provide specific training for personnel deploying on humanitarian and disaster response operations in the UK and overseas. For example we have provided a specific Ebola treatment course at our base in Catterick for medical personnel deploying to Sierra Leone.</p><p> </p><p>Since 2010, military personnel have responded to 10 significant emergencies and natural disasters overseas and six at home. UK personnel have responded to a number of smaller domestic emergencies in the UK under Military Aid to the Civil Authorities - for example, missing person searches. We also respond to a number of smaller emergencies abroad, for example, the Royal Navy takes part in numerous tasks during hurricane season in the Caribbean, under core tasks.</p><p> </p><p>We have defined 'significant' emergencies as those operations involving more than one hundred personnel. A list of which is given below.
