Narrative:
Ft. Gordon range control call to update us on aircraft involved with the altra [altrv altitude reservation]. I was osic; I have never worked an altra; none of the controllers on duty have been briefed on what was to happen; or have worked with the military altra. There was no; as in none; briefing done by management to cover this event. The controllers on duty were left to scramble and do the best they could to read the 7110.65 to have a clue on how things are to be handled.if local management can't find the time to brief the workforce on what we are to do in this type of unusual situation then I suggest that they be replaced.
