HAZMAT exercise prepares Keesler for real world
Senior Airman Paul Calica, 81st Aerospace Medicine Squadron bioenvironmental engineering technician, prepares the thermo-scientific TVA-1000 flame ionization detector to quickly identify inorganic and organic toxic vapors within the contamination zone during a Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and high-yield Explosive exercise scenario Nov. 6, 2013, at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss. The Force Protection Condition exercise scenario included a suspect posing as a driver making a delivery to the Locker House and spraying a chemical on a group of Airmen as they were assisting him with unloading the packages from the truck. Immediately, the Airmen simulated receiving eye irritations, excessive sweating, chest pain, choking, and vomiting from exposure to the chemical. (U.S. Air Force photo by Kemberly Groue)
