101 NAVAL HERITAGE NAVAL HERITAGE AND DOCTRINE
[a] Naval Doctrine Publication 1, Warfare b] Naval Doctrine Publication 5, Planning [c] NAVEDTRA 14234, Seabee Combat Handbook, Vol. 1 [d] NWP , Seabee Operations in the MAGTF [e] [f] Blue Jackets’ Manual, 23rd Edition [g] NAVEDTRA A, Petty Officer Indoctrination Course [h] NTRP Doctrinal reference for NCF

101 1. Discuss the conditions that led to the formation of the U.S. Navy. [ref. a, ch. 1] The seizure of U.S. merchant shipping by predatory French privateers and pirates from the Mediterranean's Barbary coast. In addition to their Treasury duties, the ten boats, or "Revenue Cutters," constituted the sole sea borne defense of the United States until Congress exercised its constitutional power and voted to "establish and maintain a Navy."

101 In 1794, Congress authorized the Department of War to construct six frigates, for the protection of American merchantmen against the Barbary corsairs. Four years later, in response to renewed aggression by France during its war against Great Britain, Congress finally established the Department of the Navy, authorized the Marine Corps, and began the first significant buildup of naval forces as we know them today.

101 2. Identify and explain the four qualities that represent the characteristics of the Naval Forces. [ref. a, ch. 1] A Ready Force To be effective instruments of power, our naval forces must be available and credible . not just when crises occur but daily, wherever our allies and friends rely on our presence and wherever potential adversaries must perceive our firm commitment to defend our interests.

101 A Flexible Force Naval forces have been on scene independently or as part of joint task forces time and again, assisting those in distress. Since 1945, U.S. naval forces have been involved in more than 280 crises, including 75 since 1976, and 80% of all post-World War II incidents. The flexibility of naval forces enables us to shift focus, reconfigure, and realign forces to handle a variety of contingencies.

101 A Self-sustaining Force
When we operate in forward areas at the end of long supply lines without a significant land-based supply structure, we need the ability to resupply at sea. Consequently, naval forces carry their own ammunition, spares, and consumables . as well as support and repair facilities for use early in a crisis or throughout a protracted conflict. This self-sustainability provides the National Command Authorities critical time to create an environment that will bring success. Our ships are designed to travel significant distances without replenishment. They carry the striking power of aircraft, guns, missiles, and Marine forces that can execute operations ashore immediately, without an assembly period or a lengthy logistics buildup. If conflict should continue over an extended period, naval forces can remain on station through augmentation and resupply by combat logistics ships. With provisions made for on-station replacement of personnel and ships, such operations can be continued indefinitely

101 A Mobile Force Naval forces, with their strategic and tactical mobility, have the ability to monitor a situation passively, remain on station for a sustained period, respond to a crisis rapidly, and maneuver in combat with authority. Naval forces can respond from over the horizon, becoming selectively visible and threatening to adversaries, as needed. If diplomatic, political, or economic measures succeed, our agility permits us to withdraw promptly from the area without further action or buildup ashore

101 3. State the importance of planning to naval operations. [ref. b, ch. 1] Naval Planning, examines force planning and the relationship between our capabilities and operational planning in the joint and multinational environment

101 4. Discuss the purposes of the U.S Naval Forces. [ref f, ch. 2]
The basic roles of our naval forces are to promote and defend our national interests by maintaining maritime superiority, contributing to regional stability, conducting operations on and from the sea, seizing or defending advanced naval bases, and conducting such land operations as may be essential to the prosecution of naval campaigns. Naval forces accomplish these roles through deterrence operations and specific peacetime operations, while maintaining war fighting readiness through continuing forward deployed presence, exercising a robust sealift capability, and developing our interoperability with all Services.

101 5. Discuss the Sailor’s Creed and its origin. [ref f, ch. 1]
The Sailors Creed is a statement of personal honor and integrity. It states a commitment to defend the Constitution of the United States with honor and courage and represent the fighting spirit of all the sailors that have come before us

101 6. Define the Navy’s Core Values. [ref f, ch. 1; ref. g, ch. 4]
Honor: "I will bear true faith and allegiance ..." Accordingly, we will: Conduct ourselves in the highest ethical manner in all relationships with peers, superiors and subordinates; Be honest and truthful in our dealings with each other, and with those outside the Navy; Be willing to make honest recommendations and accept those of junior personnel; Encourage new ideas and deliver the bad news, even when it is unpopular; Abide by an uncompromising code of integrity, taking responsibility for our actions and keeping our word; Fulfill or exceed our legal and ethical responsibilities in our public and personal lives twenty-four hours a day. Illegal or improper behavior or even the appearance of such behavior will not be tolerated. We are accountable for our professional and personal behavior. We will be mindful of the privilege to serve our fellow Americans.

101 Courage: "I will support and defend ..." Accordingly, we will have: courage to meet the demands of our profession and the mission when it is hazardous, demanding, or otherwise difficult; Make decisions in the best interest of the navy and the nation, without regard to personal consequences; Meet these challenges while adhering to a higher standard of personal conduct and decency; Be loyal to our nation, ensuring the resources entrusted to us are used in an honest, careful, and efficient way. Courage is the value that gives us the moral and mental strength to do what is right, even in the face of personal or professional adversity.

101 Commitment: "I will obey the orders ..." Accordingly, we will: Demand respect up and down the chain of command; Care for the safety, professional, personal and spiritual well-being of our people; Show respect toward all people without regard to race, religion, or gender; Treat each individual with human dignity; Be committed to positive change and constant improvement; Exhibit the highest degree of moral character, technical excellence, quality and competence in what we have been trained to do. The day-to-day duty of every Navy man and woman is to work together as a team to improve the quality of our work, our people and ourselves.

101 101.7 Discuss the conditions that led to the creation of the Seabees. [ref. c, d, ch. 1] Before 1941, the CEC used private contractors to accomplish all overseas construction. The Navy realized that in the event of a war civilians could not be used outside of our country. They would not be able to protect themselves and could be treated as guerillas. The Chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks had conceived the idea of Naval Construction Battalions

101 8. Discuss the significance of March 5, 1942 as it pertains to the Seabees. [ref. c, d, ch. 1] Officially, permission to use the name “Seabee” was granted on March 5, Each year March 5th is observed as the Anniversary of the Seabees.

101 9. Discuss the significance of the following personnel:
Admiral Ben Moreell [ref. d, ch. 1] Considered the father of the Seabees. In December 1941, with an eye on the developing storm clouds across both oceans, Rear Admiral Ben Moreell, Chief of the Navy's Bureau of Yards and Docks, recommended establishing Naval Contruction Battalions. With the attack on Pearl Harbor and the U.S. entrance into the war, he was given the go-ahead

101 CM3 Marvin Shields [ref. d, ch. 1)
In Vietnam, a Seabee, CM3 Marvin E. Shields, a member of Seabee Team 1104, was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. This nations highest recognition was awarded to CM3 Shields for his heroic efforts in the defense of a Special Forces Camp and Vietnamese District Headquarters at Dong Xoai.

101 SW2 (DV) Robert Stethem [ref. e]
This young Navy diver was returning from an assignment in the Middle East when the commercial jet on which he was a passenger was hijacked by terrorists. He was shot to death, after being tortured, by the terrorists on June 15, 1985. Stethem was targeted because he was part of the U.S. military. He was posthumously awarded a Purple Heart and Bronze Star. In 1995, the newly commissioned destroyer USS Stethem was named for him.

101 10 State the importance of planning to naval operations. [ref. b, ch. 1] Planning is the key to successfully training, sustaining, and ultimately fighting as a naval force. Planning facilitates future decisions and actions by helping commanders to make provision for those things which are predictable, to examine their assumptions, to come to a common understanding about the situation and the direction of future operations, and to anticipate possible enemy actions and counteractions.

101 Discuss the significant contributions made by the Seabees during the following: [ref. d, ch. 1; ref. h, Appendix b ] a. World War II Within the first two years of the war over 300 advanced bases were built by the Seabees. The first Underwater Demolition Teams (UDT’s) were composed largely of Seabees. The Naval Construction Battalions, Special, functioned as Stevedores and also the Pontoon detachments. NMCB-14 Landed on Guadalcanal Nov 1, 1942 at Koli Point under the command of Commander Thomas F. Reilly (CEC, USNR). NMCB-14 served on: Noumea, Espiritu Santo and Guadalcanal; Returned to the States. Second tour: Oahu and Okinawa

101 Korea Seabees were at the first landing at Inchon positioning causeways under enemy fire. An airstrip estimated to take 35 days to build in Yo Do in the bay of Wonson, took the Seabees 16 days to complete and make operational (Operation “Crippled Chick”). Just before the the Outbreak of the Korean War the Battalions were reorganized into NMCBs and PHIBCBs

101 Vietnam More than 29,000 Seabees were in country by 1969 and in accordance with “mobile” concept of the NCF Seabees support Marine, Navy, Army, Air Force operations throughout the RVN

101 d. Post Vietnam The Seabees distinguished themselves with the largest peacetime construction effort on the British Indian Ocean Territory of Diego Garcia. From 1971 to 1983, they built a remote forward logistic base and naval communications station thousands of miles from CONUS in support of U.S. military operations throughout the Southwest Asian theater. The mission of the initial contingent, consisting of NMCB and PHIBCB personnel, was to build a temporary Seabee camp; water and electrical distribution systems; messing, laundry, refrigeration, and storage facilities; and a 3,500-foot airstrip. By 1983, the Seabees had completed 220 projects with a construction value well in excess of 220 million dollars. The early, austere airstrip has been expanded three times to a final 12,000-foot lengthwith expanded taxiways, parking aprons, and several new hangars. Immense POL storage facilities for both the Navy and Air Force were also constructed as were a fuel pier, general storage buildings, and expanded personnel support facilities. The need for pre-positioned materials to support a rapid deployment force and a more active U.S. presence in Southwest Asia spurred the growth oft he forward logistic support site on the island. As a result, Diego Garcia todayis home to one of the MPF.s three MPSRONs

101 e. Persian Gulf War During Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm, nearly 5,000 Seabees from 6 NMCBs were employed in-theater. The Seabees constructed troop bed down facilities for 42,000 personnel, vast storage areas, aircraft parking aprons comprising millions of square feet, ASPs covering hundreds of acres, EPW camps housing up to 40,000 men, many ISBs, and hundreds of miles of roads.

101 f. Military Operations Other Than War
Seabees are also known for their many humanitarian, civic action, and disaster relief efforts in support of a wide range of MOOTW missions. In recent years, Seabees have aided the victims of Hurricanes Hugo in 1989 and Andrew in 1992; the 1989 San Francisco earthquake, and Tunisian floods during Operation Atlas Rail in1990.

102 7 Define command and control (C2). [ref. a, ch. 3]
Operational Control, (OPCON), is defined as the authority to assign tasks, to designate objectives, and to give any specific directions necessary to accomplish a mission. If required, a specific date for mission completion may be specified. Administrative Control, (ADCON), is defined as the coordination of training, project selection, logistic support, movement of personnel and equipment, furnishing services, supplies, and materials for assigned units.

102 .8 Discuss assignment/transfer and attachment of forces. [ref. a, ch. 3] The USMC/USN Terms of Reference state that OPCON is the only command and support relationship appropriate and authorized when Seabee units are employed within the MAGTF organization. ADCON usually remains with the Seabee unit.s parent NCB. OPCON of Seabee units provides the MAGTF commander with authority to direct the forces assigned so that the commander may: 1. Accomplish specific missions or tasks that are usually limited by function, time, or location. 2. Deploy the Seabee units concerned as appropriate. 3. Retain or assign tactical control of those Seabee units. OPCON does not include authority to assign separate employment of elements of the units concerned. Neither does it, by itself, include administrative or logistic control. OPCON of those Seabee organizations not governed by the TOR, but employed in theater, may also be exercised by commands other than those which have ADCON, such as the unified CINCs, CJTFs, or component commanders

102 102.9 Discuss the levels of authority (control) [ref. a, ch. 3]:
A. Type Commander (TYCOM) All ships are organized into catagories by type. Aircraft carriers, aircraft squadrons, and air stations are under the administrative control of the appropriate Commander Naval Air Force. Submarines come under the Commander Submarine Force. All other ships fall under Commander Naval Surface Force. Also, you will note that the Atlantic and Pacific Fleets mirror one another. Normally, the type command controls the ship during its primary and intermediate training cycles and then it moves under the operational control of a fleet commander. Some of the blocks in this diagram are hyperlinked to the web site of that command

102 b. Combatant Command (COCOM)
Nontransferable command authority established by title 10 ("Armed Forces"), United States Code, section 164, exercised only by commanders of unified or specified combatant commands unless otherwise directed by the President or the Secretary of Defence.

102 c. Operational Control (OPCON)
Operational Control, (OPCON), is defined as the authority to assign tasks, to designate objectives, and to give any specific directions necessary to accomplish a mission. If required, a specific date for mission completion may be specified

102 d. Tactical Control (TACON)
Command authority over assigned or attached forces or commands, or military capability or forces made available for tasking. Tactical control is limited to the detailed and, usually, local direction and control of movements or maneuvers necessary to accomplish missions or tasks assigned. Tactical control is inherent in operational control. Tactical control may be delegated to, and exercised at any level at or below the level of combatant command

102 e. Support 1. The action of a force that aids, protects, complements, or sustains another force in accordance with a directive requiring such action. 2. A unit which helps another unit in battle. 3. An element of a command which assists, protects, or supplies other forces in combat.

102 b. Supporting Commander
Commander who provides augmentation forces or other support to a supported commander or who develops a supporting plan.

102 c. General Support That support which is given to the supported force as a whole and not to any particular subdivision thereof. [Note: the Army being as they’re confused, designates general support as a “support relationship”]

102 d. Mutual Support That support which units render each other against an enemy, because of their assigned tasks, their position relative to each other and to the enemy, and their inherent capabilities.

102 e. Direct Support A mission requiring a force to support another specific force and authorizing it to answer directly the supported force’s request for assistance. [Note: Army designates this as a “support relationship” instead of “mission.”]

102 .11 Discuss the following plans and orders [ref. d]:
a. Operation Plan (OPLAN) Operational Plan, (OPLAN) is a detailed statement of a course of action to be followed to accomplish a future mission.

102 b. Operation Order (OPORD)
Operational Order, (OPORDS) may be oral, dictated, or in written form. The most important determining factor of the form and the method of issuing an OPORD is time available for its preparation and distribution

102 c. Warning Order (WARNO)
Warning Order, The purpose of a Warning Order is to give advance notice that a unit is to be moved. If time permits, the order is usually issued about 90 days in advance of the departure date. This time period allows subordinate units time to prepare for the move.

102 d. Frag order (FRAGO) A change to the original order.

102 Discuss the following levels of security clearances when does Personnel Security Investigation (PSI) expire for each [ref. f, ch 4]: a. Top Secret (TS) 5 years.

Confidential is the classification level applied to information whose unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause damage to the national security.

102 13 Discuss the procedures required for the following [ref. e, ch 9]: a. Determine clearance eligibility The authorized holder of classified information must determine that the intended recipient has security clearance eligibility established at (or above) the level of access required.

102 b. Grant access No person shall be deemed to be eligible for acces to classified information unless such access is clearly consistent with the interests of national security. Eligibility for access shall not be granted merely by reason of Federal service or contracting, licensee, certificate holder, or grantee status, or as a matter of right or privilege, or as a result of any particular title, rank, position, or affiliation.

102 c. Grant interim security clearance
In the absence of adverse information, commanding officers may grant temporary access (also referred to as interim clearance or interim access) to individuals pending completion of full investigative requirements and pending establishment of security clearance eligibility by the DON CAF. Temporary access is an exception to the requirement for a completed investigation and eligibility determination prior to access.

102 Adjust or suspend access
Access terminates when an individual transfers from one command to another, however eligibility will normally remain unaffected. Commanding officers will administratively withdraw an individual's access authorization when a permanent change in official duties (e.g., rating/MOS changes) eliminates the DON requirement for access

102 .14 Explain what the Joint Clearance and Access Verification System (JCAVS) is [ref. e, Appendix E]: JCAVS is the application that supports command security personnel providing capabilities such as communication links with the CAFs, e-QIP links to submit investigation requests, and records keeping capabilities.

102 .15 Discuss the control measures for classified information [ref. f, ch 7] Commanding officers shall ensure that classified information is processed only in secure facilities, on accredited Information Technology (IT) systems, and under conditions which prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access.

102 16 Explain the fundamentals of the Seabee Skills Assessment Program [ref. g] Interviewers are provided specific skill questions, which allow the interviewee to verbally demonstrate his or her knowledge of the skill. Additionally, critical skill requirements within each skill are identified, and overall pass/fail guidelines are provided

102 .17 Discuss required Special Incident Reporting [ref. h]
Details of accident/incident, Description of loss or damage. Description of METOC conditions at time leading accident/incident.

102 Discuss what information is required for submitting an Area Clearance Message for a specific country [ref. i] In some cases, the OUSD(P), DoS, and country or theater clearance may not be required. However, host-government country clearance usually are required if the traveler visits a host-government activity or contractor facility where classified information might be discussed. In such cases, special care must be taken to comply with the personnel clearance provisions of the FCG and related host-government security requirements.

103 3 Discuss the purpose of a mishap investigation and who’s responsible for conducting the investigation. [ref. e, ch 4] The U.S. Navy documents the loss of millions of dollars each year on accidental damage, fatalities, injuries, and occupational illness. Mishaps lower operational readiness and waste tax dollars. It is the Commanding Officer’s/Officer in Charge’s responsibility to conduct mishap investigations and report all reportable injuries, fatalities, and occupational illnesses occurring within their command or involving personnel attached to their command.

103 .4 Explain when different types of eye protection are required and where you can find the standards for design, construction, testing and use. [ref. a, ch 20] Safety goggles: Protect from flying particles and dust. Chemical goggles: Protect from splashing liquids, (acids, solvents, etc.) Safety glasses: Protect from flying particles (Impact, debris) Welding glasses/goggles: Protect from Ultraviolet radiation (arc flash). Overspectacle glasses: Protect from flying particles and impact worn over prescription lenses.

103 103.5 Discuss the Hearing Conservation Program and when personnel
are required to be enrolled. [ref. a, ch 18] Intended to prevent hearing loss related to exposure to high noise levels. Noises greater than 84 dba and peak noises greater than 140 dba require hearing protection. (ear plugs or ear muffs) Noises greater than 104 dba require double hearing protection. (ear plugs and muffs) Personnel are enrolled in the Hearing Conservation Program when they are exposed to noises greater than 84 dba for an 8 hour time weighted average based on a 40 hour work week.

103 6 Explain the different types of hearing protection and when are they required. [ref. a, ch 18] Insert type: Ear plugs Circumaural type: Ear muffs Required for continuous noise levels greater than 84 dba and peak noise levels greater than 140 dba Combination: Ear plugs and ear muffs Required for continuous noise levels greater than 104 dba

103 .7 Explain why it is necessary to properly use and maintain Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). [ref. a, ch 20] Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should be maintained in a condition that allows proper use of the equipment. Scratched lenses, dirty, missing components, etc. can lessen the effectiveness of the equipment and deter usage. When PPE is not used properly people may be injured or property damaged

103 .8 State the purpose of temporary electrical power sources and explain source inspection and certification requirements. [ref. b, ch 24] Temporary electric power is defined as any electric power source used for construction, renovation, contingency, or emergency operations. (any electric power source we use with hand tools and equipment is considered “temporary power”.) All temporary electric power sources must be inspected and certified safe, inspections are to be conducted initially and updated bimonthly

103 .9 Explain when Ground Fault Circuit Interruption (GFCI) protection is required. [ref. c, 29 CFR 1926, Subpart K ] Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI’s) are required to be used with all electric hand tools (drills, saws, concrete vibrators, etc.). GFCI’s detect a change in the flow of electricity and interrupt the circuit before any harm can be done to personnel. GFCI’s must trip at less than .5 milliamperes. GFCI’s must be tested monthly to ensure proper function.

103 .10 Explain the importance of properly grounding portable electrical power and distribution systems. [ref. d, ch 3] Electrical distribution systems require grounding to provide over current protection to the equipment, should the equipment be struck by lightning the grounding method provides a path to ground for the energy instead of through the distribution system.

103 .11 Discuss lockout/tag-out requirements for the following:
a. Program [ref. b, ch 24] All potential energy sources must be secured prior to working on equipment and machinery. Locks and tags are installed to prevent accidental activation of the equipment or energizing the power source while work is being performed. Damaged or unsafe equipment or machinery should be locked or tagged out of service to prevent use until repairs are made.

103 b. Procedures [ref. a, ch 24) A tag is installed on the device that is locked out, it is then logged in the tag out log. Both lockout and tagout devices shall indicate the identity of the employee applying the device(s). Lockout/tagout devices shall be standardized throughout a region or within each shore activity

103 Define “Confined space” and discuss the hazards associated with it. [ref. a, ch 27] Confined spaces are spaces with: limited access or egress (not equipped with regular doors or intended for frequent entry) poor to no ventilation potential to contain harmful gasses or vapors. Low or high oxygen concentration <19.5% or > 23.5% Hazards associated with confined spaces: Suffocation–Oxygen Deficiency below 19.5 %. Poisoning–Toxic gases or materials Explosion–Flammable gases or materials Electrocution Entrapment Typical injuries (cuts, abrasions, falling, slipping, etc.)

103 13 Explain who is authorized to certify a “Confined space” as safe for entry/work. [ref. a, ch 27] Confined Space Program Manager. Only person who can certify a confined space entrance. Lists PPE required to enter a confined space. Lists the types of hazards. Constantly monitors work space during job. Only Gas Free Engineers are authorized to certify a confined space for entry. Once all personnel exit the space for any duration, the space must be re-certified. All confined spaces with potential hazards require a permit for entry

103 14 Discuss the three basic types of respirators and explain their use, care, and selection. [ref. a, ch 15] Air purifying: Purifies the air by filtration (does not provide oxygen) Supplied air: Uses a respirator face piece in conjunction with a remote air source, air hose restrictsmovement, unlimited time limit Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) completely self contained allows freedom of movement in harmful environments, has time limitation. USE: Inline Respirator.–Used in oxygen deficient spaces or where hazardous gases are present. Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).–Used in oxygen deficient spaces or where hazardous gases are present. Usually when the workers will be on the move. Air Purifying Respirator.–Used to clean the air you are breathing only. Cannot filter out hazardous gases or provide oxygen to breath.

103 Care: Cleaning. -Wipe after each use with alcohol swab.
-Wash monthly with warm soapy water. Maintenance. -Fixed by the RPPM only. Storage. -Stored in dry, clean, labeled and air tight bag. -Stored laying flat.

103 15 Discuss the importance of the Industrial Hygiene and Work Place Monitoring Program. [ref. a, ch 8] Industrial Hygiene (IH) personnel recognize, evaluate and make recommendations to control potential workplace hazards. Assess potential health risks faced by Navy personnel. Establish and document historical records of exposure levels for Navy personnel. Ensure and demonstrate compliance with NAVOSH exposure criteria

103 16 Discuss the basic reporting procedures required when an
unsafe/unhealthful working condition report is submitted. [ref. a, ch 10] Report to Chain of Command. If Chain of Command does not resolve the problem report to the Safety Office. If you desire not to verbally report to the Safety Office, you may submit a “Report of Unsafe/Unhealthful Working Conditions” OPNAV 5100/11. Once the Safety Office receives the report they have up to 72 hours to investigate the situation. Alleged imminent danger situations will be investigated within 24 hours. The Safety Officer will reply in writing to the person submitting the report within 10 working days.

103 17 Discuss the four general classes of fires and what types of extinguishers are used on each. [ref. e, ch 18] Class A Fires in ordinary combustible materials such as wood, cloth, paper, rubber and many plastics. Use water , antifreeze, soda-acid, foam, aqueous film forming foam(AFFF), loaded stream, multipurpose dry chemical and Halon type fire extinguishers. Class B Fires in flammable liquids, oils, greases, tars, oil base paints, lacquers and flammable gases. Use Halon, CO2, dry chemical, foam and aqueous film forming foam type fire extinguishers. Class C Fires which involve energized electrical equipment where the electrical nonconductivity of the extinguishing media is of importance. Use Halon, CO2 and dry chemical type fire extinguishers. Class D Fires in combustible metals such as magnesium, titanium, zirconium, sodium, lithium and potassium. Use the fire extinguisher approved for each specific combustible-metal hazard

103 18 Discuss the purpose of a safety stand-down. [ref. e, ch. 1]
Safety Stand-downs are to provide specific safety information and training for specific hazards, evolutions, and activities. Safety Stand-downs are usually before known potentially dangerous times such as holiday seasons, prior to exercises, etc. Additionally, Safety Stand-downs are scheduled after catastrophic mishaps to prevent similar mishaps. Provides a forum to release specific safety information or guidance to a large audience. Used to focus personnel on specific hazards of their jobs and work stations. Re-enforces safety as the number one priority required in the performance of their jobs. Provides time for personnel to reflect on past and current work safety practices and standards.

103 .19 Discuss the concept of ORM. [ref. f]
Operational risk management is defining risks involved with actions and weighing the risks against the possible gains.

103 103.20 Explain the following as they apply to ORM: [ref. f]
a. Identify hazards Begin with an outline or chart of the major steps in the operation (operation analysis). Next, conduct a Preliminary Hazard Analysis by listing all of the hazards associated with each step in the operational analysis along with possible causes for those hazards.

103 b. Assessing hazards For each hazard identified, determine the associated degree of risk in terms of probability and severity

103 c. Making risk decisions
Start with the most serious risk and select controls that will reduce the risk to a minimum consistent with mission accomplishment. With selected controls in place, decide if the benefit of the operation outweighs the risk. If the risk outweighs benefit or if assistance is required to implement controls, communicate with higher authority in the chain of command

103 d. Implementing controls
Complete a plan of how each risk will be handled with the allowable limits.

103 e. Supervising Monitor for any changes which might present new hazards. Adjust ineffective controls. Determine which controls are effective and ensure they are implemented for future similar evolutions.

103 21 Discuss the four principals of ORM. [ref. f]
Applying the Operational Risk Management process will reduce mishaps, lower costs and provide for more efficient use of resources. A decision making tool used by people at all levels to increase operational effectiveness by anticipating hazards and reducing the potential for loss, thereby increasing the probability of a successful mission. Increases our ability to make informed decisions by providing the best baseline of knowledge and experience available Minimizes risks to acceptable levels, commensurate with mission accomplishment. The amount of risk we will take in war is much greater than that we will take in peace, but the process is the weighing of the gain against the possible loss

103 .22 Define Hazard severity and mishap probability in relation to the Risk Assessment Code. [ref. f] An expression of the risk associated with a hazard that combines the hazard severity and mishap probability into a single Arabic number. RAC Definitions: 1 - Critical risk 2 – Serious risk 3 – Moderate risk 4 – Minor risk 5 – Negligible risk

104 104 BASIC FIRST AID AND PERSONAL HYGIENE FUNDAMENTALS References:
[a] NAVEDTRA 14295, Hospital Corpsman [b] NAVEDTRA 14234, Seabee Combat Handbook, Vol. 1

104 104.1 State the sequence to examine an injured person. [ref. b, ch. 10] Check for breathing: lack of oxygen intake can lead to brain damage or death in a very few minutes Check for bleeding: life cannot continue without an adequate volume of blood to carry oxygen to tissues Check for shock: unless shock is prevented or treated, death may result even though the injury would not otherwise be fatal.

104 .2 State the reason for not moving an injured person unless absolutely necessary. [ref. b, ch. 10] As a general rule, make your preliminary examination in the position and place you find the victim. Moving the victim before this check could gravely endanger life, especially if there are fractures, skull or spine injuries.

104 Describe the signs, symptoms, and treatment of shock. [ref. b, ch. 10]) Shock is a condition in which the circulation of the blood is seriously disturbed. This can cause lack of oxygen to body systems. Signs/symptoms The signs of shock do not always appear at the onset of the injury. The following is a list of some of those signs: Sweaty but cool skin (clammy skin) Paleness of skin Restlessness or nervousness Thirst Pulse is weak and rapid Enlarged pupils Breathing is shallow and irregular Blotchy or bluish skin, especially around the mouth Nausea and/or vomiting

104 Treatment –Keep the victim calm Try to prevent the victim from seeing the injury If victim is conscience and no internal injuries are evident, you should give the victim small amounts of warm water. If it is possible, place the injured person on the back on a bed, cot, or stretcher, and raise the lower end of the support about 12 inches so that the victim's feet will be higher than the head

104 4 Explain why you should not give an unconscious person anything by mouth. [ref. b, ch. 10] Giving an unconscious person any food or drink by mouth can cause vomiting. If the victim vomits, the vomited material may enter the lungs. Victim could choke to death

104 .5 Describe the three types of bleeding. [ref. b, ch. 10]
Capillary bleeding. Bleeding is slow, the blood "oozes" from the (wound) cut Venous bleeding. The blood is dark red or maroon, and flows in a steady stream Arterial bleeding. The blood bright red and “spurts” from the wound. Arterial bleeding is life threatening and difficult to control

104 .6 Explain the four methods for controlling bleeding. [ref. b, ch. 10] Direct pressure: First method to use when controlling bleeding. In almost every case bleeding can be stopped by direct pressure on the wound Use a sterile dressing when available and tie a knot directly over the wound. Do not tie the knot too tight and cut off circulation

104 Elevation: Raising an injured limb above the level of the heart helps to control the bleeding. Elevation should be used together with direct pressure Caution! •Do not elevate a limb when you suspect a fracture

104 Indirect pressure: In instances of severe bleeding where direct pressure and elevation are not controlling the bleeding, indirect pressure may be used.Bleeding from a cut artery or vein can often be controlled by applying pressure to the appropriate pressure point. The object of the pressure is to compress the artery against the bone, thus shutting off the flow of blood from the heart to the wound

104 Tourniquet: Should only be used as a last resort for severe, life threatening bleeding that cannot be controlled by any other method. When using this method, be thoroughly familiar with the dangers and limitations of it’s use

104 7 Discuss the major pressure points of the body. [ref. b, ch. 10]
Facial artery Apply pressure on this point when bleeding is on the face below the level of the eyes Subclavian artery Used for bleeding in the shoulder or in the upper part of the arm. Apply pressure with the fingers behind the clavicle Brachial artery Used to control bleeding between the middle of the upper arm and the elbow Radial and ulnar arteries Used to control bleeding from the hand. If possible hold the arm up in the air Iliac artery Used to control bleeding from the thigh. Pressure with your fingers should be sufficient to stop the bleeding

104 104.8 Describe the first aid treatment for a sucking chest wound. [ref. a, ch. 4] Requires immediate first aid treatment A penetrating injury to the chest that produces a hole in the chest cavity, causing the lung to collapse, which prevents normal breathing functions It is imperative the wound be sealed with an airtight dressing to prevent air from entering the chest cavity through the wound. Any material that will form an airtight barrier, can be used if they are large enough to cover the wound If the victim’s condition suddenly deteriorates when you apply the seal, IMMEDIATELY remove it After the wound is sealed and dressed, the victim should be placed on the wounded side unless there are back injuries Watch the victim closely for shock and treat accordingly Do not give victim anything to drink. Transport to treatment facility IMMEDIATELY

104 .9 Describe the first aid treatment for a person with a suspected spinal injury. [ref. b, ch. 10] Do not move the victim unless it is absolutely essential Do not bend or twist the victim’s body, do not move the head forward, backward, or sideways and do not under any circumstances allow the victim to sit up

104 .10 Describe the three degrees of burns. [ref. b, ch. 10]
First Degree Burns Characterized by redness, mild swelling, and pain Usually the result of spending too much time in the sun, short contact with chemicals, or minor scalding with hot water or steam Second Degree Burns Are much deeper than first-degree burns Appearance: very red with blisters Usually results from deep sunburns or flash burns from gasoline fires Most painful type of burns because the nerve endings are still intact even though the skin is severely damaged Third Degree Burns The most serious burn because the burn is so deep, it requires a long time to heal and scars will form over the burn area Skin may look white or charred black Extends through all layers of the skin and into the flesh below the skin.

104 .11 Describe the first aid treatment for the following burns:
a. White phosphorous burn on back [ref. b, ch. 10] A special category of burn is that caused by contact with white phosphorus First aid for this type of burn is complicated by the fact that white phosphorus particles ignite upon contact with air Treatment: Partially embedded particles must be continuously flushed with water while the first aid provider removes them with whatever tools are available Deeply embedded particles that cannot be removed must be covered with a saline soaked dressing

104 b. Chemical burn on arm [ref. b, ch. 10]
Flush the area immediately with a lot of cool running water for 5 to 10 minutes to wash away any chemicals. Remove clothing and jewelry from the victim on which chemicals have spilled Flush again with water and gently pat it dry with a sterile gauze. Do not rub the area.

104 Alkali burns caused by dry lime:
Mixing water and lime creates a very corrosive substance. Dry lime should be removed by brushing the material from the skin and clothing unless massive amounts of water are available for rapid and complete flushing

104 Acid burns caused by carbolic acid
Wash the affected area with alcohol because carbolic acid is not water soluble. Then wash the area with large quantities of water If alcohol is not available, flushing with water is better than no treatment at all

104 c. Flash burn to eyes [ref. a, ch. 8]
Burns caused by a nuclear explosion are divided into two classes: direct and indirect burns Direct burns, usually called flash burns, are the result of thermal, infrared radiation emitted by a nuclear explosion Indirect burns are the result of fires caused by the explosion Symptoms: Blindness may persist for 20 to 30 minutes Eyes are irritated, like having sand in the eyes Treatment: Apply cold compresses to the affected area. Transport victim to the nearest medical treatment facility

104 d. Chemical burn to eyes [ref. b, ch. 10]
The one and only emergency treatment for a chemical burn to the eyes is to flush the eye(s) immediately with large amounts of water or sterile saline solution Acid burns to the eyes should be irrigated for at least 5 to 10 minutes with at least 200 milliliters of water Alkali burns should be irrigated for at least 20 minutes Do not allow water to fall directly on the eye. Hold the victim’s head in a position that allows water to flow from inside the corner of the eye toward the outside

104 .12 Describe the symptoms and treatment of: [ref. b, ch. 10]
a. Heat cramps Heat cramps usually affect people who work in hot environments or who engage in strenuous exercise without acclimating themselves to the conditions May result from drinking ice water or other cold drinks too quickly or in too large a quantity after exercise Symptoms –Excessive sweating which can result in painful cramps in the muscles of the abdomen, legs, and arms Muscle spasms caused by heat cramps usually last only a few minutes Treatment Move to a cool place Give plenty of water to drink Gently massage muscles to relieve the spasms If symptoms do not improve treat for heat exhaustion and transport to a medical facility

104 b. Heat exhaustion The most common heat related condition resulting from prolonged exposure to hot conditions Heat exhaustion involves a serious disturbance of blood flow to the brain, heart, and lungs Symptoms: Victim may appear ashen gray; skin will be cold, moist, clammy, normal or subnormal temperature Pupils may be enlarged Victim may experience symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, headache, loss of appetite, and nausea

104 c. Heat stroke Sunstroke is more accurately called heat stroke since it is not necessary to be exposed to the sun for this condition to develop. Heat stroke is less common but far more serious than heat exhaustion. The most important factor of heat stroke is the extremely high body temperature, 105 F or higher, that accompanies it 20% mortality rate Symptoms: Dry hot skin Pupils constricted Very high body temperature Treatment –Heat stroke is a true life or death emergency The longer the victim remains overheated, the more likely the victim is to suffer irreversible body and brain damage or death The main objective is to get the body temperature down as quickly as possible Get victim to a medical treatment facility as soon as possible Cooling measures must be continued during transport

104 13 Explain how heat casualties in the field may be prevented. [ref. a, ch. 4] Command responsibility Prevention centers on water and salt replacement Do not consume alcoholic beverages

104 .14 Describe frostbite and immersion foot. [ref. b, ch. 10]
Frostbite occurs when ice crystals form in the skin or deeper tissues after sustained exposure to a temperature of 32 degrees F or lower Depending upon the temperature, altitude, and wind speed, the exposure time necessary to produce frostbite varies from a few minutes to several hours. The areas most commonly affected are the face and extremities

104 Immersion foot, which may also occur in the hands, is a cold injury resulting from prolonged exposure to wet, cold temperatures just above freezing It is often associated with limited motion of the extremities and water-soaked clothing The temperature does not need to be below 32 degrees F to cause injury Symptoms Early stages, the feet and toes turn pale and feel cold, numb, and stiff Walking becomes difficult The feet will swell and become painful If not treated the flesh dies and amputation of the extremity may be necessary •Treatment: Do not rub or massage the injured part Remove wet clothing Do not rupture blisters or apply salves or ointments Clean with soap and water, dry thoroughly, elevate and keep extremity exposed to dry air Evacuate by litter.

104 Describe the signs and symptoms of hypothermia. [ref. b, ch. 10] Hypothermia is cooling of the entire body. It can be caused by continued exposure to low or rapidly dropping temperatures, cold moisture, snow, and/or ice Symptoms: Several stages of progressive shivering Feelings of sluggishness, drowsiness and confusion Victim may become unconscious Victim may go into shock The lower extremities may freeze Treatment: Victim must be warmed quickly Move victim to warmth

104 .16 Explain how cold injuries can be prevented. [ref. a, ch. 4]
Cold weather injuries can be prevented by becoming accustomed to a cold climate, by wearing warm layered clothing, and by maintaining good discipline and training Wearing dry gloves, stocking cap, well insulated boots, and keeping the body well hydrated will help the body maintain its normal temperature

104 .17 Describe the symptoms and first aid treatment for a joint dislocation. [ref. a, ch. 4] Description A bone that has been forcibly displaced from its joint is dislocated Dislocations are usually caused by falls or blows but are occasionally caused by muscle exertion. The joints that are most frequently dislocated are the shoulder, hip, finger, and jaw Symptoms Rapid swelling and discoloration Loss of ability to use the joint Severe pain and muscle spasms Possible numbness Possible loss of pulse below the joint Shock

104 Treatment Loosen the clothing around the injured part
Place the victim in the most comfortable position possible Support the injured part by means of a sling, pillow, bandages, splints, or any other device that will make the victim comfortable Treat the victim for shock Get medical help as soon as possible

104 .18 Explain when and why a cold pack or heat pad would be used on a sprain. [ref. a, ch. 4] Treat all sprains as fractures until ruled out by x-rays Apply cold packs for the first 24 to 48 hours to reduce swelling and to control internal hemorrhage Apply a snug, smooth, figure eight bandage to control swelling and to provide immobilization After the swelling stops moist heat can be applied for short periods (15 to 30 minutes) to promote healing and reduce swelling

104 .19 Describe the procedure for treating insect bites. [ref. a, ch. 5] The best method for removing ticks is to coat them with petroleum jelly, baking powder paste, or clear nail polish The tick should be pulled off with a pair of tweezers or one’s fingers. Care should be taken not to crush the tick or break off the head or embedded mouth parts while still in the skin

104 .20 Describe the first aid treatment for snake bites. [ref. a, ch. 5] The most important first aid treatment for venomous snakebites is reducing the circulation of blood through the bite area This will delay absorption of the venom, prevent aggravation of the local wound, and maintain the victim’s vital signs Wrap a constricting band 2 to 3 inches above the fang marks, or above the nearest joint, but away from the swelling A second constricting band should be placed 2 to 3 inches below the wound.

104 If the victim can not reach a medical facility within 30 minutes, and if there are definite signs of poisoning, use a sterile knife blade to make an incision about 1/2 inch long and 1/4 inch deep lengthwise over each fang mark. Apply suction cups to help remove injected venom. Suction by mouth is recommended only as a last resort. The human mouth contains so many bacteria that the bite could become infected. Incision and suction more than 30 minutes after the bite is not recommended. Treat for shock Use a splint to immobilize the victim’s affected extremity, keeping the involved area at or below the level of the heart Cover the wound to prevent further contamination.

104 .21 Describe the first aid treatment for fractures. [ref. b, ch. 10] If there is any possibility that a fracture has been sustained, treat the injury as a fracture until an x-ray can be made Rough handling of the victim may convert a closed fracture into an open fracture, increase the severity of shock, or cause extensive damage to the blood vessels, nerves, muscles, and other tissues around the broken bone Do not move the victim until the injured part has been splinted Treat for shock

104 .22 Describe how to reinforce a compress dressing. [ref. a, ch. 4]26 Battle dressings may be reinforced by applying additional sterile dressings over the battle dressing and covering the entire dressing with an elastic bandage

104 26 Explain three methods of purifying water in the field. [ref. b, ch. 10] Boiling Boiling is used when disinfecting compounds are not available. To purify a canteen of water by boiling, follow the steps listed below: Boil the water at a rolling boil for at least 15-20 seconds Let the water cool before drinking it. Once the water has cooled, it must be consumed

105 105.1 Describe the difference between Hazardous Material (HAZMAT) and Hazardous Waste (HW). [ref. c ch. 5] Hazardous material is something that can be used for a purpose, the waste is the byproduct that is not utilized

105 2 State the purpose and information contained on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). [ref. b, ch. 7; ref. c ch. 5] Document generated by manufacturer of the material Communicates to the users the chemical, physical, and hazardous properties of that material. In compliance with OSHA hazard communication, standard key information contained includes the following Name, address, and emergency contact for the manufacturer Physical/Chemical Characteristics Fire and Explosive Hazard Data Reactivity Data Health Hazard Data Precautions for Safe Handling and Use Control Measures

105 .3 What are the six categories of HAZMAT? [ref. c, ch. 5]
Category Hazard Level Work Center Description A High Industrial Operations/ Heavy Equipment Operations and Maintenance Toxic/Hazardous Materials Handling/ Construction Other: Exposures to heat, cold, diving salvage, heights or other high risk work. B Moderate Supply/Transportation/Medical/Mechanics/RDT&E: Engineers, test mechanics and laboratory personnel involved in the research, development, evaluation and test of systems. C Low Administrative, Clerical, Classroom D Shipboard Personnel E Operating Forces F Students

105 .4 Explain the storage procedures for incompatible material. [ref. d, ch. C2304, Appendix. C23-F] According to the type of HAZMAT, certain storage procedures must be applied. For example, do not mix flammables and toxic materials, or flammables and corrosives, together. The safest practice is to draw only the amount of material that can be used that day. Storing hazardous materials on the job site requires the use of approved containers. Containers must be placed a minimum of 50 feet away from any ignition device or source. Plan for the delivery of proper storage equipment before hazardous materials are delivered to job site

105 .5 What are the general procedures to be followed when a Hazardous
Material/Hazardous Waste (HM/HW) spill occurs or is discovered? [ref. f, ch. 10; ref. g, 29 CFR ] The unit must respond immediately Must have an approved response team, equipment and disposal plan. Reports must be made and tests conducted to ensure no contamination remains. Disposal of contaminated soils, etc. must follow strict guidelines

105 .8 Describe the purpose of secondary labeling of HAZMAT when unit packages (marked packages that are part of a larger container) are removed from the shipping container. [ref. b, ch. 7] To inform the user by means of words, pictures, symbols, or combination thereof of the specific physical and health hazard(s), including target organ effects, of the chemical(s) in the container(s).

105 9 Define the following terms:
a. Hazardous Material Minimization Center (HAZMINCEN) [ref. d, ch. C2303] Central Hazardous Materials Center for an installation. Responsible for procurement and inventory management activities

105 Discuss the aspects of portable containment of oils spills on water. [ref. b , ch. 7] An oil slick on the surface of the water blocks the flow of oxygen from the atmosphere into the water. Booming of spills has proved to be effective in containing spills of liquids on relatively calm and current-free waters.Following confinement of oil spills on water, various methods of removing the confined liquid have been used. Absorbents, such as straw, plastics, sawdust, and peat moss are spread on the surface of the spill and then collected and burned on shore. Skimming devices operate on a different principle and must include pumps and separators. Skimmers scoop up the oil and water and send them through an oil separator and rollers to which only the oil adheres. The oil is then removed by scraping and compression.

105 a. Oil spills Can detrimentally affect wildlife and the environment. OIL SPILLS ON WATER.— An oil slick on the surface of the water blocks the flow of oxygen from the atmosphere into the water. This is harmful to fish and other aquatic life Besides harming aquatic life, drinking water can become contaminated by oil. Drinking water from wells and surface storage facilities is treated with chemicals to rid the water of harmful bacteria. However, no amount of treatment can rid a system of contamination from waste oil products. The system must be abandoned.

105 b. Grubbing operations Large scale clearing in initial stages of a project can produce damaging side effects: Increased soil erosion Reduction of atmospheric oxygen Destruction of wildlife habitat Preventive measures Save as much vegetation as possible Construct shallow trench around project Burn only when necessary and after obtaining a burn permit. Do not use petroleum-based fuels to start fires

105 c. Asbestos Fibrous material used extensively from the 1930’s to the 1960’s Covered by OPNAVINST As a rule, NCF DOES NOT do asbestos work

105 d. Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB)
Group of toxic chemicals used extensively as insulators and coolers in electrical equipment, especially transformers Causes irritation to eyes, skin, and lungs, also suspected of causing cancer Accumulate in the environment and are absorbed into human fat tissues. Actions Secure the site Notify the activity environmental coordinator and the EPA branch or division.

107 c. Practice Dangerous to Security (PDS) [ref. a, ch. 10]
PDSs, while not reportable to the national level (NSA), are practices, which have the potential to jeopardize the security of COMSEC material, if allowed to perpetuate.

107 [ref. a, Annex L] Every command that holds classified COMSEC or CCI material must prepare and maintain a current, written emergency plan for safeguarding such material in the event of an emergency. For commands located within the continental United States (CONUS), planning must consider natural disasters (e.g., fire, flood, tornado, and earthquake) and hostile actions (terrorist attack, rioting, or civil uprising). For commands located outside of CONUS and deployable commands, planning must consider both natural disasters and hostile actions and must also include Emergency Destruction Procedures (EDPs).

107 e. Data Transfer Device (DTD) [ref. a, Annex Y]
The DTD is an integral component of the EKMS. It is used to securely distribute key generated by the LMD/KP to consumers. The consumers are either an end cryptographic unit (ECU) or another DTD. The DTD is also able to replace current common fill devices(FDs).

Malfunction The failure of a weapon to function satisfactorily, usually because of excess friction caused by dirt, improper lubrication or carbon buildup Immediate action You must stop and clean the weapon to correct this problem

108 b. Misfire A complete failure to fire, NOT a delay in firing that may be caused by a faulty firing mechanism or a faulty element in the propelling charge explosive train. Immediate action - The following steps are to be followed: Strike the forward assist to be sure the extractor has engaged a round. Tap upward on the magazine to ensure it is fully seated. Pull the charging handle to the rear. If round is ejected, released handle, strike forward assist and attempt to fire. If round is not ejected, check for a round in the chamber, if it is clear, released handle, strike forward assist and attempt to fire. If a round is stuck in the chamber it must be removed before attempting to reload/re-chamber

108 c. Stoppage Any interruption in the cycle of functioning caused by faulty action of the weapon or ammunition. Immediate action - Without analyzing the cause the following steps are to be followed: Strike the forward assist to be sure the extractor has engaged a round. Tap upward on the magazine to ensure it is fully seated. Pull the charging handle to the rear. If round is ejected, released handle, strike forward assist and attempt to fire. If round is not ejected, check for a round in the chamber, if it is clear, released handle, strike forward assist and attempt to fire. If a round is stuck in the chamber it must be removed before attempting to reload/re-chamber.

108 108.5 State the eight steps of operation in a firing cycle. [ref. b, ch. 3] Feeding - The feeding action places a round in the receiver just to the rear of the chamber. Chambering - Takes place as the moving bolt strips the round and forces it into the chamber. Locking - Holds the bolt in the forward position for a short period of time to prevent the loss of gas pressure. Firing - The firing pin actually strikes the primer of the cartridge. Unlocking - After the round is fired, the bolt unlocks and moves rearward. Extracting - The process of pulling the empty case back out of the chamber. As the bolt moves rearward extraction occurs Ejecting - As the casing is extracted, ejection occurs as it is thrown out of the weapon. Cocking - The retraction of the firing mechanism against spring pressure so that there will be sufficient energy to fire the next cartridge.

108 .6 Explain the differences between semiautomatic and automatic operation. [ref. a, ch. 3] Semiautomatic: weapon unlocks, extracts, ejects, cocks and reloads automatically. However, the trigger must be pulled each time to fire a round. Automatic: weapon unlocks, extracts, ejects, cocks and reloads automatically.

108 .11 Describe and discuss the six types of grenades:
[ref. a, ch. 12; ref. d, ch. 13] a. fragmentation Grenades designed to inflict personnel casualties and damage to light equipment by projecting high velocity fragments from the detonated grenade case. The effective casualty-producing radius is about 50 feet (15 meters b. Illuminating Grenades used mainly to light up the terrain in night operations. The Mk 1 is the only illuminating grenade currently available. It provides about 55,000 candlepower for a period of 25 seconds. Used to illuminate terrain in night time operations Once pin is pulled, GRENADE MUST BE THROWN!

108 c. Chemical Grenades that are chemical filled munitions designed to be thrown by the individual or projected from the service rifle using a special adapter. ABC-M25A2, riot control hand grenade is the most commonly used Filled with a type of tear gas chemical that causes irritation and watering eyes. Used for incendiary, screening, signaling, training and riot control purposes

108 d. Incendiary AN-M14 incendiary Thermite is used to ignite combustible materials and to destroy all types of equipment. This TH grenade is cylindrical in shape and weighs 32 ounces (900 grams). Contains filler of 26.5 ounces (751 grams) of Thermite mixture. It uses an igniting delay fuse that sets fire to the Thermite. The Thermite burns at a temperature of about 4,300 degrees

108 e. Smoke Grenades that are cylindrical in shape and weigh about 27 ounces (765 grams). They can be thrown about 40 yards (37 meters) with an effective casualty radius of nearly 30 yards (27 meters). f. Practice/training Used to train personnel in the care, handling, and use of grenades prior to using actual service grenades. These grenades are used for training personnel in the care, handling, and use of hand grenades before using service grenades. Practice grenades simulate the functioning of service grenades to provide realism in training.

108 .12 Discuss hand grenade safety procedures. [ref. a, ch. 12]
Hand grenade safety precautions must be observed by everyone who handles and/or throws any and all types, and by other persons who may be within the grenade's danger area. Anyone within the danger area of a casualty-producing grenade (about 55 yards or 50 meters) must wear a steel helmet. When the safety pin is pulled, the safety lever or arming device should be held down firmly until it is thrown All personnel handling casualty producing grenades must wear proper protection Never attempt to de-fuse hand grenades Do not remove the safety pin until ready to throw Do not attach grenades to clothing or equipment

108 13 Discuss the characteristics and purpose of the Claymore mine. [ref. a, ch. 12] Placement: This mine should be positioned so as to Afford all friendly personnel, within 110 yards (100 meters) to the rear and sides of the mine, the opportunity to take adequate cover. Arming: After the M18A1 mine is positioned and Properly aimed, it is armed by first opening the blasting cap assembly and unrolling the wire from either the firing position or the mine. The wire is secured by wrapping a few turns of wire around a leg of the mine and burying it if possible. Safety requirements: Before attaching the firing device directly, the circuit should be checked for continuity with the test set provided to ensure that the mine will function at the desired time.

108 The firing device has a safety bail with two positions.
In the upper (safe) position, it acts as a block between the firing handle and the generator. In the lower (fire) position, it allows the generator to be activated. The instructions provided with the M7 bandoleer should be carefully followed by anyone using these mines. Range / Coverage: When detonated, the M18A1 mine will project steel spheres over a 601 fan-shaped pattern approximately 6 feet (1.8 meters) high and 164 feet (50 meters) wide to an optimum effective range of 55 yards (50 meters). These steel fragments are moderately effective up to a range of approximately 110 yards (100 meters) and can travel up to 275 yards (250 meters).

108 108.14 Describe the characteristics of the machine gun.
a. M240B [ref. f, pp. 4-5] Description – Air cooled, Belt-Fed, Gas Operated, Fully Automatic Weapon, that fires from the open bolt position. Ammunition is fed into the weapon from a 100-round bandoleer containing a disintegrating metallic split-link belt. The gas from firing one round provides the energy for firing the next round. Thus, the gun functions automatically as long as it is supplied with ammunition and the trigger is held to the rear. As the gun is fired, the belt links separate and are ejected from the side. Empty cases are ejected from the bottom of the gun. A spare barrel is issued with each M240B, and barrels can be changed quickly as the weapon has a fixed head space. However, barrels from different weapons should not be interchanged. The bore of the barrel is chromium plated, reducing barrel wear to a minimum

108 The M240B may be fired from either the bipod or tripod mounts
. Weight – 27.1 pounds . Length – 49 inches Maximum Range – 3725 meters . Muzzle Velocity – 2800 feet per second .

109 20 Discuss an individual’s responsibilities under each article of the code of conduct. [ref. c, ch. 4] There are six articles of the Code . Article I: I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense. Article II: I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to resist. Article III: If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. Article IV: If I become a Prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way. Article V: When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give my name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further question to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its Allies or harmful to their cause.

THREATCON ALPHA applies when there is a general threat of possible terrorist activity against personnel and facilities, the nature and extent of which are unpredictable, and circumstances do not justify full implementation of THREATCON BRAVO measures. However, it may be necessary to implement certain measures from higher THREATCONs either resulting from intelligence received or as a deterrent. The measures in this THREATCON must be capable of being maintained indefinitely

109 c. THREATCON BRAVO applies when
an increased and more predictable threat of terrorist activity exists. The measures in this THREATCON must be capable of being maintained for weeks without causing undue hardship, affecting operational capability, and aggravating relations with local authorities

109 THREATCON CHARLIE applies when an incident occurs or intelligence is received indicating that some form of terrorist action against personnel and facilities is imminent. Implementation of measures in this THREATCON for more than a short period probably will create hardship and affect the peacetime activities of the unit and personnel

109 .30 Discuss immediate actions for enemy contact during the following: a. Convoy [ref. d, ch. 3] Passengers return fire immediately. Driver does not stop in the kill zone but drives through. Once clear of the killing zone, vehicle halts and occupants dismount to take offensive action. Vehicles in the rear approaching kill zone halt, debark, and take immediate action. If a vehicle is disabled in the kill zone: Passengers in HARDENED vehicles return fire from inside the protective vehicle. Passengers in SOFT vehicles immediately dismount, take cover, and return fire. If no cover is available, unit commander leads them in an immediate frontal assault.

109 b. Patrol [ref. b, ch. 5] Near Ambush: Return fire and assault through. Withdrawal from a near ambush is unlikely, so it is critical to return fire immediately and drive through.Enemy may not expect a quick and decisive response. Far Ambush: Take cover and withdraw orderly. Immediately drop and return fire. Unit commander organizes withdrawal with constant cover fire.

109 31 Discuss challenge and password. [ref. a, ch. 11]
Sentry’s duties As someone approaches, sentry calls, “Halt! Who goes there?” Reply with name and company: “CE1 Spark, B Co.” Sentry: “Advance and be recognized.” Sentry keeps person distant enough to effectively cover him, but close enough to recognize him. Person passes if recognized. If not recognized, sentry offers countersigns. Always disguise countersigns in a sentence and speak in a low voice. Person has been successfully challenged and would be allowed to pass.

109 32 Describe the procedures to establish a LZ. [ref. b, ch. 3]

The threat faced today is uncertainty. Regional crises can arise in any geographical location and, as history suggests, can arise on short notice. Quick and credible response is required to deter an escalation in hostilities and, if deterrence fails, to fight and win decisively. The MPF provides this capability.

110 Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT)
Urban environments pose enormous difficulties for planning and conducting military operations. The heightened risk of collateral damage during operations in urban environments partially offsets U.S. technological superiority and provides adversaries with expanded opportunities to exploit U.S. military doctrine. Consequently, urban combat options available to planners and leaders are generally more restrictive. International law and self-imposed political constraints also severely restrict maneuver options.

111 c. Nuclear radiation Alpha particles: Must be taken into the body through ingestion or cuts to be injurious. Beta particles: Enter through the skin or ingestion, carried in contaminated dust, dirt, or bomb residue Gamma Rays: Pure energy and not easily stopped, can penetrate every region of the body. Gamma rays strike atoms in the body cause ionization of these atoms, which may result in any number of possible chemical reactions that damage the cells of the body. Neutrons: Have the greatest penetrating power of the nuclear radiation hazards, create hazards to personnel when the neutron is captured in atoms of various elements in the body, atmosphere, water, or soil. The captured elements become radioactive and release gamma rays and beta particles.

111 d. Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) phenomenon
An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) will be produced by high-altitude bursts, airbursts, and surface bursts. The initial nuclear ionizing radiation ionizes the atmosphere around the point of detonation. This action produces an EMP, which will contain frequency components in the range from a few to several hundred kilocycles per second. The EMP has magnetic and electric field components that exist for only a fraction of a second. The magnetic field component is significant inside the radius of the ionized atmosphere. It can induce large currents in cables and long-lead wires. These large transient currents can burn out electronic and electrical equipment. The electric field component can also produce transient signal overloads and spurious signals on communication nets and in computer-driven systems

111 .18 Discuss the procedure for setting up a detailed equipment decontamination line. [ref. l, ch. 3] The contaminated unit, by company, moves to a predecon staging area approximately 250 to 500 meters downwind of the thorough decon site. Here, the contaminated unit conducts the required predecon actions that are designed to prepare the unit for the thorough decon operations. Predecon actions include the following: 1. Segregate contaminated vehicles fromuncontaminated vehicles, if possible. 2. Allow vehicle crews to dismount and prevent further transfer/spread of contamination. 3. Prepare vehicles for detailed equipment decon. 4. Move contaminated vehicles and troops to the detailed troop and equipment decon lines.

111 .19 Discuss the duties and responsibility of the following CBR team: [ref. i, ch. 4; ref. j, ch. 4] a. Personnel DECON Set up and operate the Detailed Troop Decontamination b. Equipment DECON Set up and operate the Detailed Equipment Decontamination c. Survey/monitor team Find/identify contamination or monitor movement/levels of existing contamination

111 21 Explain the three types of CBR surveys and their uses. [ref. h, ch. 5] Point Survey The point surveillance mission is conducted for a specific period of time, oriented to key terrain. It is typically conducted to ensure that time sensitive or critical operations can be conducted without unwarned encounters with chemical agent clouds or transfer hazards resulting from munitions event Route Survey Routes and specific points may be surveyed if that information is usually found during recon operations If conducted, the survey team goes to a specific point or points along a route and tests for the presence of liquid contamination with M8 or M9 detector paper. Area Survey The goal of an area surveillance mission is to provide a tailored detection capability in those tactical situations where it is impractical to employ remote point samplers, such as M8A1 system.

111 Describe what type of standard decontamination agent reacts violently with liquid mustard agent? [ref. i, app. D] Super-tropical bleach: STB reacts violently by igniting spontaneously upon contact with liquid mustard agent. STB should not be inhaled or come in contact with the skin. STB gives off toxic vapors upon contact with G agents.

111 Explain and discuss the following dosimetry equipment: [ref. h, ch. 4] a. IM 143 This is the standard tactical dosimeter in use today. It is a direct reading instrument capable of detecting and recording a total dose of up to 600 rads. It is termed a pocket dosimeter and is about the size and shape of a fountain pen.

111 ANPDQ1 The AN/PDQ-1 is a multi range RADIAC that detects beta and gamma radiation. It is powered by two D cell batteries and is used for personnel monitoring and for both high and low intensity surveys. The AN/PDQ-1 uses a Geiger-Mueller ionization chamber and has an operating range of R/HR. It can read in both mR/hr and R/hr. The probe measures gamma radiation and can also detect beta radiation when the probe shield is open. The AN/PDQ-1 will replace the AN/PDR-27 and the AN/PDR-43.
