Service Life
120 Days
Max wear time
45 days
When does the CPO Service life begin
Begins when the garment is removed from the factory vacuum-sealed bag.
How often can the CPO be laundered
Can be laundered 6 times and provides 24 hours of protection against liquid, solid, and vapor CB attacks. Also protects against alpha and beta particles
What is the NAAK Mark 1
Personnel receive 3 nerve agent antidote kits for the purpose of immediate treatment. consists of 1 small auto injector containing atropine and a second containing pralidoxime chloride. A plastic clip holds two together.
What is the mask called
MCU-2A/P protects from CW BW agents and radioactive dust particles.
Different types of anti-personnel agents
Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuiclear
Effects of Biological agents
use of pathogens or toxins as weapons. BW agents include anthrax, plague, cholera, smallpox, ricin toxin, botulinum toxin, mycotoxin
Effects of Nuclear Weapons
Can cause tremendous adverse blast, thermal energy, radioactive and EMP effects. initial and residual effects of a nuclear weapon can cause a large number of casualties, material damage and contamination.
Discuss purpose of MOPP
Mission Oriented Protective Posture MOPP balances protection requirements and performance degradation with mission requirements. Commander has responsibility for providing guidance for the levels of protection. The higher the MOPP level, the more protection it provides, but the more it degrades performance.
Factors of MOPP
Threat, Temp, Work Rate, Hydration Requirements, and Mission
MOPP LEVELs
1: Worn- suit
2: Worn- suit and boots
3: Worn- Suit, boots, and mask
4: Worn- Suit, boots, mask, and gloves
Discuss M8 Chem agent detector
used to detect contamination and monitor level of contamination on the equipment
Discuss M9 Chem agent detector
same as M8
Discuss M256 Chem agent detector
detect and identify blood, blister and nerve agents present either as liquid or as vapor
Types of warfare
Chemical, Biological, Radiological
Describe the colors and marking on NATO CBR marker signs
yellow with red is chemical, blue with red is biological, white with black is radiological.

Discuss characteristics of M291
Non toxic skin decontamination kit. Decon pads are impregnated with the decontamination compound Ambergard XE555 Resin, a black, freeflowing, resinbased powder.
Discuss characteristics of M295
Equipment decontamination kit. consists of a carrying pouch which contains 4 sealed softpack packets (enough to do 2 complete individual equipment decontamination operations). Each packet contains powder for decontamination and utilizes the same powder as the M100 SDS System.
Discuss the purpose and use of the m100 sorbent decon kit
Sorbent decon kit. uses powdered sorbent to remove chemical agents from surfaces. nontoxic and noncorrosive, and it requires no water to complete its mission. designed to operate at temps between -25 and 120 F.
Discuss unmasking procedures after a CBR attack
When a detector kit is available use the M8A1 or M22 automatic chemical agent detector alarm (ACADA). When not available personnel removing mask stand downwind of decontamination station personnel.
