Special Gear


Shannon is doing great as her training is nearing the end. This is a picture of her and Andrea in their CBRNE MOPP gear (Shannon is on the left). CBRNE is the acronym for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear & high yield Explosives. MOPP is the acronym for Mission Oriented Proctive Posture. This is protective gear to be worn in a toxic environment. The gear consists of a protective mask, mask carrier, over garments, gloves and over boots. There are 5 different protective levels according to the type of threat and they are numbered 0-4, each level requires particular gear worn or at the ready.
