Enabling the ChemWarrior to execute his assigned mission in a zone contaminated by nuclear, chemical or otherwise lethal combat warfare agents requires the use of special combat equipment. This mainly includes that those soldiers are trained to permanently wear a heavy hermetically sealed combat protective suit while on their dangerous missions. This specific uniform of course is quite a burden as it hinders movements, sweat evaporation, breathing and hydration. Therefore getting used to breathe against the resistance of a heavy combat approved filter, to live on liquid nourishment for days only and with limited opportunities to hydrate through the face masks liquid input port while constantly wearing the heavy ballistic protection equipment such as combat helmet and plate carrier are the first tasks of every ChemWarrior recruit. But only this will later allow to go on several days long top secret reconnaissance missions or sabotage or open combat missions during a cbrn warfare scenario. Keep up good mood and breathe steadily.

CBRN infantry exercise "fallOUTpost"

CBRN operator ZodSqd seen during real field exercise "fallOUTpost". He was assigned to make his way into a contaminated former combat zone, to check for remaining enemy troops and intelligence. This long-range recon mission had to be fullfilled in full protective posture wearing his personal individual protective military equipment type "Zodiac", ballistic protection equipment and full long range reconnaissance field pack. This commented video material gives an overview of the required capabilities for extended cbrn reconnaissance missions and other operations in an advanced combat uniform possibly worn be most infantrymen in future CBRN based conflicts.

CBRN recon operator ZodSqd training some basic movements for hand-to-hand combat while wearing his hermetically sealed Zodiac individual protective equipment (IPE). Remember the most important in such scenarios is to prevent one’s enemy from unscrewing the gasmask filter or breaking any other seals of the IPE.

Heat, sweat and adrenaline. After an hour of approach to the assigned recon target in fully protected combat posture, there is still the retreat to be done - of course without prematurely breaking the seals of the live-sustaining heavy protective ensemble (#zodiacsuit). This is #bestpractice of #tacticallifestyle for the #infantryman as #cbrnsoldier or #chemwarrior to protect from any #biohazard #biowarfare #chemwarfare #atomicwarfare #nuclearwarfare #gepäckmarsch #durchschlageübung #abcschutzanzug #germanmilitary #milsim #milstagram
