Field Management of Chemical Casualties: Second Edition (U.S.Army)   [open pdf - 370KB]

"The purpose of this Handbook is to provide concise, supplemental reading material for attendees of the Field Management of Chemical Casualties Course. As a consequence of the unprecedented world challenges, the threat spectrum faced by the U.S. into the next century has broadened. It now includes formerly democratic governments, members of regional cooperation alliances, and terrorists of all persuasions. Let's narrow our gaze somewhat and look at examples of threats within the chemical and biological (C/B) threat spectrum."
