Front 17

Immediate Decon

Back 17

Minimizes casualties. Individual decontaminates upon contamination

Front 18

Operational Decon

Back 18

Limits spread of contamination to eliminate the necessity or reside the duration of wearing MOPP gear

Front 19

Thorough Decon

Back 19

Reduced or eliminates need for individual protective clothing

Front 20

Immediate Decon techniwues

Back 20

Skin Decon (1 minute or less), personnel wipe down operator’s spray down both done within 15 minutes

Back 21

Vehicle wash down and MOPP gear exchange, don’t withing 6 hours

Front 22

Thorough Decon techiques

Back 22

Detailed troop Decon, detailed equipment Econ, and detailed aircraft Decon, only when mission allows reconstitution

Front 23

Reacting to a nuclear blast

Back 23

Take immediate action, take cover if possible, drop face down, helmet on, heat towards blast, close eyes and cover skin, weapon under body if carried. Stay down for 90 seconds or until debris stops falling

Front 24

Nerve agent

Back 24

Interferes with normal transmission of peeve impulses in the parasympathetic nervous system.

Front 25

Nerve agent symptons

Back 25

Inhalation’s: pupils constrict. Skin exposure: local muscular twitching. Other symptoms: rhinorrhea, suspensions, diarrhea, vomiting, convulsions, hyper salivation, drowsiness, and unconsciousness

Front 26

Nerve Agent treatment

Back 26

2 mg auto injection atropine, an acetylcholine blocker and 600mg autoinjection of 2-PAM CL. Administer at 15 minute intervals until mild atropinization occurrs (Tachycardia and dry mouth)

Front 27

Blister agents

Back 27

Produces large painful blisters that are incapacitating

Front 28

Mustard Blister Agents signs and symptoms

Back 28

Oily, colorless or pale yellow liquids, may produce eye inclination, eyes are the most sensitive. Pain and gritty feeling are first signs in eyes. Blistering begins 12 to 48 hours.

Inhalation is followed by irritation of the thought, hoarseness, and a cough followed by fever moist rales and dyspnea

Death caused by pulmonary obstruction

Front 29

Lewisite blister signed and symptoms

Back 29

Lewisite is an arsenical, light to dark brown, irritation is immediate, intense pain upon contact

Front 30

Blister Agent treatment

Back 30

Clean any exposed skin off ASAP to mitigate symptoms, British anti-lewisite (BAL), dimercaprol. An injection of more than 3 mg/kg will cause severe symptoms
