Terminal Learning Objective ACTION:React to a nuclear hazard or attack.
Terminal Learning Objective (cont.) CONDITIONS:Given a scenario simulating a nuclear attack, you must respond to one of the following situations where you: 1. See a brilliant flash of light or a mushroom- shaped cloud. 2. Find a standard radiological contamination marker or an enemy marker.
Terminal Learning Objective (cont.) CONDITIONS (cont.): 3. Are told that fallout is in your area. 4. Receive warning instructions to respond to a nuclear attack. 5. Come across a suspected DULLRAM hazard.
Terminal Learning Objective (cont.) STANDARD:Identify the best protective shelter; identify radiological contamination markers with 100% accuracy. Identify requirements to decontaminate self and equipment. You must achieve a score of 70% on the Performance Based Test.
Learning Objective A • ACTION:Identify types of radiation and actions to take to react to a nuclear hazard or attack without warning.
Learning Objective A (cont.) • CONDITIONS:Given a scenario simulating a nuclear attack, you must respond to a situation where you see a brilliant flash of light or a mushroom-shaped cloud.
Learning Objective A (cont.) • STANDARD:Identify the best protective position to avoid or lessen the effects of the blast.
Learning Objective B • ACTION:Identify actions to take to react to a nuclear hazard or attack with warning.
Learning Objective B (cont.) • CONDITIONS:Given a scenario simulating a nuclear attack, you must respond to a situation where you receive warning instructions to respond to a nuclear attack.
Learning Objective B (cont.) • STANDARD:Identify all steps to take to react with warning. Identify positive and negative characteristics of protective shelters.
Foxholes Prone position foxhole Open one-person foxhole Open two-person foxhole
Foxhole Positions Fair Protection Good Protection Best Protection
Field Expedient Overhead Cover Cut Timber and Scrap Materials U-Shaped Metal Pickets Fabric Cover or Poncho
Field Expedient Overhead Cover (cont.) • Use of Vehicles as Expedient Overhead Cover
Line-of-Sight ABOVE-GROUND SHELTER GOOD RADIATION PROTECTION LINE-OF-SIGHT TO BURST BETTER RADIATION PROTECTION BELOW-GROUND SHELTER
Earth-shielded Positions Cover sandbags with earth and sod to protect them from thermal exposure Covered sandbags enhance camouflage and provide fragmentation protection
Buildings Reinforced-concrete Structure Reinforced Masonry-block House
Armored Vehicles • For protection, armored vehicles should be dug in (hull defilade) or placed in trenches or cuts in roads.
Learning Objective C • ACTION:Identify radiological contamination markers and actions to take if you find one.
Learning Objective C (cont.) • CONDITIONS:Given a situation where you find a standard radiological contamination marker or an enemy marker.
Learning Objective C (cont.) • STANDARD:Identify radiological contamination markers and actions to take with 100% accuracy.
U.S. and NATO Radiological Contamination Markers ATOM Faces Away from Contamination Faces Toward Contamination White Background with Black Lettering Information on Marker: Dose Rate Date and Time of Reading Date and Time of Blast (if known)
Warsaw Pact Contamination Markers C%= Nuclear[ = Biological?%= Chemical Red Background Black Lettering Decontaminated Path (and its width) Area cannot be Decontaminated
Learning Objective D • ACTION:Identify the steps to remove radiological contamination (including DULLRAM) from exposed skin, clothing, and equipment.
Learning Objective D (cont.) • CONDITIONS:Given a scenario simulating a nuclear attack, where you: • 1. Are told that fallout is in your area. or • 2. Come across a suspected DULLRAM hazard.
Learning Objective D (cont.) • STANDARD:Identify steps to take to remove radiological contamination with 70% accuracy.
Decon Procedures • Brush, Scrape, or Flush radiological contamination. • Cover Foxholes and Shelters. • Radiac Operators begin continuous monitoring • Covering the Mouth with handkerchief reduces contaminants entering the lungs. • This method is preferable to masking to avoid trapping contamination in the mask filter.
