CBRN Knowledge Network
Concerning your question about info on
gas chamber exercises, the US Army CBRN
School at Ft Leonard Wood, MO, has put
out instructions for doing the exercises. Go
to their CBRN Knowledge Network site:
wood_cms/usacbrns.shtml
Then click on CBRN Knowledge Network
Website. You will need to use your CAC
card to log in. Under DOTMLPF, click
on Training and click again on CBRN
Collective Training. Then click on the ±le
Mask Con±dence Training. This gives you a
training program developed and approved
by the US Army CBRN School.
But don’t stop there. The site also offers:
•
CBRN Specialist (MOS-T) Course (Phase 1)
online access instructions
•
US Army CBRN School Training Support—
This site contains training materials
used by the school to train CBRN War±ghters.
•
CBRN Collective Training—
This site contains CBRN materials for unit training.
•
CBRN Soldier Training—
This site offers tools, resources and information for
Soldier training that includes critical tasks.
•
Standards in Training Commission—
The site assists units
in developing weapons training strategies and requirements.
In 2009, a new training video came out on
using the M12 decon. You can order it online:
Go to Learning Resources and type in “M12
decon apparatus”.
But the Defense Imagery site has a wealth
of other training material on all kinds of
CBRN and other Army equipment, including
the M40 mask, M41 PATS, the ICAM, and
the M17 decon. CBRN specialists need to
check out the site for material they can use in
training their unit.
Dear Half-Mast,
We help train Soldiers on CBRN equipment and we’ve run into a couple of
problems we hope you can help with:
•
The only training film we have on deconning is very old. Are there any films
more recent?
•
TC 3-8 used to cover how to conduct gas chamber exercises for
masks, but it was rescinded. Its information was supposed to be added to
AR 350-1,
Army Training,
but it wasn’t. Where can you go for guidance
on doing the gas chamber exercises?

it!
Mr. G.H.,
You’re in
luck!
I hear these
CBRN training
films are
kinda old.
I guess
you could
say that
Good grief!
there must be
more current
training on
deconning
than
this!
