62
CONSIDERING THE STATED DELIVERY METHODS, WHAT CAN OR CANNOT BE CONCLUDED ABOUT A CHEMICAL AGENT?
THE MEANS OF DELIVERY DOES NOT IN ITSELF HELP IN IDENTIFYING CHEMICAL AGENTS. A SPRAY OR CLOUD DELIVERED FROM AN AIRCRAFT OR BY SHELLS AND BOMBS INDICATES A CHEMICAL ATTACK MAYBE TAKING PLACE. IT MUST BE REMEMBERED THAT VAPORS DELIVERED FROM AIRCRAFT MAY NOT BE VISIBLE; ALSO, VAPORS AND SPRAYS MAY BE HIDDEN BY ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS.
63
WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT MAY BE OBSERVED OR DETECTED THAT MAY AID IN THE DETECTION OR IDENTIFICATION OF THE PRESENCE OF A CHEMICAL AGENT?
ODOR. SOME AGENTS HAVE ODORS WHICH MAY AID IN THEIR DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION, BUT MANY ARE ESSENTIALLY ODORLESS.
64
HOW MAY THE ODOR OF A CHEMICAL AGENT BE CONCEALED?
THE ODOR OF A CHEMICAL AGENT DELIVERED BY AN EXPLOSIVE SHELL MAY BE CONCEALED BY THE ODOR OF THE BURNING EXPLOSIVE.
65
HOW MAY THE MIXING OF CHEMICAL AGENTS INCREASE THEIR LETHALITY?
VOMITING AGENTS MAY BE MIXED WITH MORE LETHAL AGENTS TO INDUCE VOMITING AND IRRITATION OF THE RESPIRATORY TRACT. THIS MIXTURE FORCES THE AFFECTED INDIVIDUALS TO BREAK THE SEAL OF THEIR MASKS IN ORDER TO VOMIT, EXPOSING THEM TO THE MORE TOXIC AGENTS IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
66
HOW MAY THE EARLY DETECTION OF THE ODOR OF A CHEMICAL AGENT INCREASE SURVIVABILITY? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS APPROACH?
DETECTION OF A CHEMICAL AGENT ODOR IS ONE INDICATION FOR IMMEDIATELY PUTTING ON THE MASK AND WEARING IT UNTIL THE “ALL CLEAR” SIGNAL IS GIVEN. HOWEVER ODOR ALONE MUST NOT BE RELIED ON FOR DETECTION OR IDENTIFICATION OF A CHEMICAL AGENT. SOME CHEMICAL AGENTS ARE NOT PERCEPTIBLE BY SMELL EVEN ON INITIAL EXPOSURE. CONTINUED EXPOSURE DULLS THE SENSE OF SMELL. EVEN HARMFUL CONCENTRATIONS OF AN ODOR-PRODUCING CHEMICAL AGENT MAY BECOME IMPERCEPTIBLE.
67
WHAT ARE THE MOST RELIABLE MEANS OF IDENTIFYING A CHEMICAL AGENT?
STANDARD DETECTION DEVICES ARE THE MOST RELIABLE MEANS OF IDENTIFYING A CHEMICAL AGENT.
68
WHAT ARE THE SHORTFALLS OF USING STANDARD DETECTION METHODS FOR CHEMICAL AGENTS?
USERS SHOULD REMEMBER THAT DETECTION DEVICES INDICATE CONCENTRATIONS IN THEIR IMMEDIATE AREA ONLY. THEY MAY NOT COVER LARGE AREAS AND SHOULD NOT BE THE SOLE MEANS ON WHICH TO BASE CONCLUSIONS ON THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF CHEMICAL AGENTS.
69
HOW CAN A CHEMICAL AGENT THAT HAS PRODUCED SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS IN EXPOSED PERSONNEL BE IDENTIFIED??
(1) A BRIEF HISTORY BRINGING OUT THE SYMPTOMS THAT HAVE OCCURRED AND THEIR PROGRESSION.
(2) PHYSICAL EXAMINATION OF THE EYES (PUPILS, CONJUNCTIVAL, LIDS) AND SKIN.
(3) OBSERVATION OF RESPIRATION, COLOR OF MUCOUS MEMBRANES, AND GENERAL BEHAVIOR.

THE CASE FITS INTO THE POCKET ON THE OUTSIDE REAR OF THE M17 OR M40 PROTECTIVE MASK CARRIER OR IN AN INSIDE POCKET OF THE CARRIER FOR THE M24 AND M25 SERIES PROTECTIVE MASK. THE CASE CAN ALSO BE ATTACHED TO THE WEB BELT OR ON THE D-RING OF THE PROTECTIVE MASK CARRIER.
137
WHAT AREAS OF THE BODY SHOULD BE AVOIDED WITH THE DECON-1 AND DECON-2 PACKETS AND WHY?
THE INGREDIENTS OF THE DECON-1 AND DECON-2 PACKETS OF THE M258A1 KIT ARE POISONOUS AND CAUSTIC AND CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE EYES. THE WIPES MUST BE KEPT OUT OF THE EYES, MOUTH, AND OPEN WOUNDS.
138

WHEN THE M258A1 KIT HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH THE M291 KIT, THE M258A1 WILL BE USED FOR DECONTAMINATION OF SELECTED ITEMS OF INDIVIDUAL CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT (THERE IS INSUFFICIENT CAPABILITY TO DO MORE THAN EMERGENCY SPOT DECONTAMINATION).
139
WHAT EQUIPMENT IS THE M258A1 KIT NOT USED TO DECONTAMINATE?
THE M258A1 KIT IS NOT USED TO DECONTAMINATE THE PROTECTIVE OVERGARMENT. THE PROTECTIVE OVERGARMENT DOES NOT REQUIRE IMMEDIATE DECONTAMINATION SINCE THE CHARCOAL LAYER IS A CHEMICAL AGENT BARRIER; HOWEVER, TO ENHANCE ITS PROTECTIVE CAPABILITY, GROSS CONTAMINATION SHOULD BE REMOVED.
140
WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WITH A CONTAMINATED PROTECTIVE OVERGARMENT?
EXCHANGE THE PROTECTIVE OVERGARMENT AS SOON AS THE MISSION PERMITS, USING THE PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN FM 3-5.
141
WHAT IS USED TO DECONTAMINATE THE WEAPON, HELMET, AND OTHER INDIVIDUAL GEAR?
THE DECONTAMINATION PACKET, INDIVIDUAL EQUIPMENT (DPIE), M295, IS USED TO DECONTAMINATE INDIVIDUAL EQUIPMENT SUCH AS THE WEAPON, HELMET, AND OTHER INDIVIDUAL GEAR.
142
WHAT DOES THE M295 CONTAIN?
THE M295 CONTAINS THE SAME INGREDIENTS AS THE M291, EXCEPT THAT THE PADS ARE MUCH LARGER.
143
WHAT USE IS THE M295 NOT APPROVED FOR?
HOWEVER, THE M295 IS NOT FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION (FDA) APPROVED FOR USE ON THE SKIN.
144
WHAT PROCESS IS USED FOR THE DECONTAMINATION PROCESS FOR CASUALTIES?
CONTAMINATED CASUALTIES ENTERING THE MEDICAL TREATMENT SYSTEM ARE DECONTAMINATED THROUGH A DECENTRALIZED PROCESS.
145
HOW IS THE DECONTAMINATION PROCESS INITIALLY STARTED?
THIS IS INITIALLY STARTED THROUGH SELF-AID AND BUDDY AID PROCEDURES.
146
AFTER THE INITIAL DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURE IS COMPLETED, WHAT IS DONE?
LATER, UNITS SHOULD FURTHER DECONTAMINATE THE CASUALTY BEFORE EVACUATION.
147
WHERE ARE DECONTAMINATION STATIONS ESTABLISHED?
PATIENT DECONTAMINATION STATIONS ARE ESTABLISHED AT THE FIELD MTF TO DECONTAMINATE INDIVIDUALS AS REQUIRED (CLOTHING REMOVAL AND SPOT SKIN DECONTAMINATION) PRIOR TO TREATMENT AND FURTHER EVACUATION.
148
WHO MANS THE DECONTAMINATION STATIONS?
THESE STATIONS ARE MANNED BY NONMEDICAL MEMBERS OF THE SUPPORTED UNITS UNDER MEDICAL SUPERVISION. MEDICAL SUPERVISION IS REQUIRED TO PREVENT FURTHER INJURY TO THE PATIENT AND TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT (EMT) DURING THE DECONTAMINATION PROCESS.
149
WHY ARE NONMEDICAL PERSONNEL USED IN THE DECONTAMINATION STATIONS?
THERE ARE INSUFFICIENT MEDICAL PERSONNEL TO BOTH DECONTAMINATE AND TREAT PATIENTS.
150
HOW ARE THE MEDICAL PERSONNEL OCCUPIED DURING THE DECONTAMINATION PROCESS?
MEDICAL PERSONNEL WILL BE FULLY EMPLOYED PROVIDING TREATMENT FOR THE PATIENTS DURING AND AFTER DECONTAMINATION BY NONMEDICAL PERSONNEL.
151
IN WHAT MANNER IS THE DECONTAMINATION PROCESS CONDUCTED?
DECONTAMINATION IS ACCOMPLISHED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE TO FACILITATE MEDICAL TREATMENT, PREVENT THE PATIENT FROM ABSORBING ADDITIONAL AGENT, AND REDUCE THE SPREAD OF CHEMICAL CONTAMINATION (FOR DETAILS ON PATIENT DECONTAMINATION, SEE APP C OF FM 8-10-7 AND CHAP 9 OF FM 3-5)
152

FOR A CHEMICAL ATTACK, WHAT DOES BUDDY AID CONSIST OF?
BUDDY AID. BUDDY AID CONSISTS OF EMERGENCY ACTIONS UNDERTAKEN BY INDIVIDUALS TO RESTORE OR MAINTAIN VITAL BODY FUNCTIONS IN A CASUALTY. EXPOSURE TO CHEMICAL AGENTS MAY PRODUCE EFFECTS WHICH REQUIRE IMMEDIATE SELF-AID. HOWEVER, MENTAL CONFUSION, MUSCULAR INCOORDINATION, PHYSICAL COLLAPSE, UNCONSCIOUSNESS, AND CESSATION OF BREATHING MAY OCCUR SO RAPIDLY THAT THE INDIVIDUAL IS INCAPABLE OF PROVIDING SELF-AID.
155
FOR A CHEMICAL ATTACK, DURING BUDDY AID, WHAT DOES THE NEAREST INDIVIDUAL NEED TO DO?
DUE TO POSSIBLE MENTAL CONFUSION, MUSCULAR INCOORDINATION, PHYSICAL COLLAPSE, UNCONSCIOUSNESS, AND CESSATION OF BREATHING MAY OCCUR SO RAPIDLY THAT THE INDIVIDUAL IS INCAPABLE FO PROVIDING SELF AID. THEREFORE, THE NEAREST INDIVIDUAL MAY NEED TO-
(1) MASK THE CASUALTY.
(2) ADMINISTER ANTIDOTES.
(3) ADMINISTER ASSISTED VENTILATION, IF REQUIRED AND IF EQUIPMENT IS AVAILABLE.
(4) DECONTAMINATE THE CASUALTY.
(5) PUT SELECTED ITEMS OF PROTECTIVE CLOTHING ON THE CASUALTY TO PRECLUDE FURTHER ABSORPTION OF CONTAMINATION THROUGH ANY EXPOSED SKIN.
(6) EVACUATE THE CASUALTY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
156
FOR A CHEMICAL ATTACK, WHAT DOES COMBAT LIFESAVER (CLS) CONSIST OF?
COMBAT LIFESAVER. IN ADDITION TO THOSE ACTIONS TAKEN AS BUDDY AID, CLS AID ALSO INCLUDES-
(1) ADMINISTERING ADDITIONAL ATROPINE.
(2) ADMINISTERING ADDITIONAL CANA.
(3) ESTABLISHING AN OROPHARYNGEAL AIRWAY.
(4) STARTING INTRAVENOUS INFUSIONS.
157
IN A CHEMICAL ATTACK, WHAT DOES MEDICAL TREATMENT CONSIST OF?
MEDICAL TREATMENT CONSISTS OF THOSE PROCEDURES UNDERTAKEN TO RETURN SOLDIERS TO DUTY, TO SAVE LIFE AND LIMB, AND TO STABILIZE THE PATIENT FOR EVACUATION TO THE NEXT LEVEL OF MEDICAL CARE. TABLE 1-1 SUMMARIZES THE TREATMENT OF CHEMICAL AGENT CASUALTIES. SPECIFIC CHEMICAL AGENT TREATMENT PROCEDURES ARE DESCRIBED IN THE SUCCEEDING CHAPTERS.
