This capability employs the command and control function of the Survival Recovery Center/NBC Cell, decontamination operations by expedient means primarily and more detailed by specialized teams if needed, notification of alarm conditions be means of a base wide siren system and a Giant Voice system in the Tent City area. NBC reconnaissance through the placement of alarm at designated location and the use of specialized mobile teams, use of a Contamination Control Area if the situation dictates, and the maintaining of individual protective equipment to include agent antidotes and personal decontamination kits. 1.
