Yes. JSLIST overgarments
come from the factory in vac-
uum-sealed nylon/foil bags
that are sealed within clear
plastic bags. Sometimes these
nylon/foil bags lose their vac-
uum and appear puffy. Even
though TM 10-8415-220-10
says otherwise, JSLIST in
bags with broken vacuum
seals are still good unless the
bags have clearly visible holes
or tears or have been opened.
The TM is being changed to
say this.
No, as long as you immediately
tape over the hole with duct tape
to recreate the seal. If you acci-
dentally open the bag, you can
tape it shut. Just be careful not to
tape over any part of the surveil-
lance data on the bag. JSLIST in
repaired bags retains its original
shelf life.
The same goes for any JSLIST
whose shelf life has expired.

popping up.
no!
If you think your
JSLIST has been
exposed to petroleum,
oil, or other lubricants,
don't use it for anything
other than training.
can I
use this
suit?
A puffy bag
doesn’t
mean
JSLIST is no good
If you immediately
tape a hole, your
JSLIST is still usable
“will A JSLIST exposed to oil protect me?”

tore a hole in
my JSLIST bag.
My JSLIST MOPP
