22
Q

Is responsible for establishing a shelter plan and should designate unit responsibility for preparing and operating each shelter during an attack or event

A

The Installation Commander

23
Q

Are structures that protect personnel from chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear effects over extended periods

A

Shelters

24
Q

Are used in conjunction with protective shelter locations and other facilities, they provide protection from chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear agents using an overpressure system to keep threat agents outside of certain facilities, ultimately allowing the occupants to work or rest inside the facility without wearing protective gear

A

Collective Protection Systems

25
Q

Are procedures that are not the same as those used for shelter-in-place

A

Active Shooter Lock-down

26
Q

Prior to a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear attack, every unit must determine

A

Which equipment and assets can be stored, protected, or covered to shield against contamination

27
Q

Are critical, not only to ensure the Air Force mission is continued, but more importantly, for survival during and after a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear attack

A

Crisis Response Actions

28
Q

During attacks, the primary focus of the base populace should be directed toward

A

Force survivability to ensure attack warning signals and mission-oriented protective posture (MOPP) levels are rapidly disseminated

29
Q

SALUTE reporting method

A

(S) Size The number of persons and vehicles seen or the size of an object
(A) Activity
Description of enemy activity (assaulting, fleeing, observing)
(L) Location
Where the enemy was sighted (grid coordinate or reference point)
(U) Unit
Distinctive signs, symbols, identification on people, vehicles, aircraft, or weapons (numbers, patches, clothing type)
(T) Time
Time activity was observed
(E) Equipment
Equipment and vehicles associated with the activity

30
Q

Focus on saving lives, detecting and mitigating hazards, mission restoration, and sustainment

A

Recovery actions

31
Q

Will determine when base specialized and unit reconnaissance teams begin post-attack chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear surveys

A

The Installation Commander

32
Q

Will be directed to release post-attack reconnaissance teams to collect information about the effects of the attack

A

Unit Control Centers

34
Q

Is the primary command and control function for collecting and consolidating post-attack information

A

35
Q

If exposed to nerve and blister agent in the eyes, the eyes should be

A

Irrigated with water

36
Q

If a chemical agent gets on the skin or protective equipment

A

The protective equipment must be removed immediately

37
Q

Are the most effective methods of removing chemical agents

A

The reactive skin decontamination lotion and M295

38
Q

If personnel become contaminated with chemical, biological, or radiological agents, they decontaminate by processing through
