Didn't you already start teaching kids how to behave in case of chemical, biological or "dirt bomb" attack?! The more I look at you guys - the more surprised I am :confused:  You have a war with terrorists or what?

Not that I really like taking his side but boroda makes some good points.  How many of you REALLY know what to do if a dirty bomb exploded in your city?

How many of your family know what to do?  How many people in the US know how to don and clear a gas mask?  How many people actually have gas masks in their house?  You'd think with all the information available about "possible" attacks the public would have some kind of education about "BASICS" but it's a simple fact that there is not.  

Some of these things is what almost EVERY Israli kid knows by heart.  How many know what atropine is besides what they've seen in movies?  I'm not saying at all that we need to become a militant state but I do think that some are not performing their responsabilities as public servents when it comes to protecting the populus.

Yes I agree with Guns. There is a big diff between the army and the marines.
Marines are the guys who couldnt make it in the ARMY:)

Easy one, you tape yourself up in plastic bags.  I saw it on FOX 4 news.

gunslinger... the hot setup is to simply stay out of the blue areas... this is sound advice no matter if you fear dirty bombs or not.

by the time they get around to me I will have figured it out.

Soviet Army was not using markings in English.
Not sure if the Russian Army is using English nowadays.

Glass ampoules were standard containers for medicinal drugs in the Soviet Army.
And  from my Soviet military past I even vaguelly remmember some instructions about the handling of the antidote ampoules (as far as I recollect, you should break off the spearhead-shaped tip, but do it in a snap, because there's a precut groove in the neck of the vial, ... and so on and so forth...).

Oh well, who doesn't have a few sarin detectors laying around the house at any given moment.

Could be some leftovers from Iranian-Iraqi war.
Especially if the area where they were found is not relatively far from the border with Iran.

Boroda, the level of US journalism in foreign affaires is below floor level. They would not even bother to hire a Russian translator cuz the general understanding is that any Polak from the mail-room is an expert in Russian.
