An explosive ordnance disposal technician undergoes the decontamination process after leak, seal, package and decontamination training April 21 at the gas chamber on Camp Hansen, Okinawa. The EOD technicians and Chemical, biological radiological, nuclear defense specialists used protective equipment to perform general decontamination of the affected area and prepare the leaking ordnance for safe containment and transport before completing the decontamination process. CBRN defense specialists assisted in familiarizing the EOD technicians with the decontamination line process and safe removal of protective gear after the leaking ordnance was successfully contained and removed from the original site. The training instilled the Marines’ confidence in their safety equipment and procedures used to mitigate CBRN-related hazards. The Marines are with 9th Engineer Support Battalion and Marine Logistics Group Headquarters Regiment, 3rd MLG, III Marine Expeditionary Force.

Marines contain a leaking ordnance round during leak, seal, package and decontamination training April 21 at the gas chamber on Camp Hansen, Okinawa. Explosive ordnance disposal technicians and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear defense specialists placed a leaking ordnance package in the gas chamber, using chlorobenzylidene malonitrile, also known as tear gas, to simulate the emission of harmful gases. The EOD technicians and CBRN defense specialists used protective equipment to safely contain the leaking ordnance and prepare the package for transport out of the affected area before completing the decontamination process. The training instilled the Marines’ confidence in the safety equipment and procedures used to mitigate CBRN-related hazards.
