We’re all issued chem gear, what’s the point? Besides more DS fear porn.
Yeah we had NBC gear. Good for the shitter on a hot day
Given our media I have a hard time trusting anything anymore. I noticed that a package of okra I bought said something like ‘grown 100% on US soil’ and I immediately wondered what country might try to import US soil for their farms.

I remember having to carry around a damned useless (until you need it) gas mask for years. It’s standard equipment that all soldiers have to carry.
