I read that article yesterday and was impressed with their objective. A large number of commanders I encountered in the Corps just wanted to get the check in the box for NBC/CBRN training, so I never saw anything on a scale this large involving combat troops. Good practice for the next crap location we end up in. I was in Iraq for several of the chlorine attacks, and I could tell firsthand stories about events at the Al Muthanna Chemical Complex mentioned in the article. If we end up warring with a nation with a legitimate weapons program, I see these exercises expanding and becoming the norm.
