Book excerpt: This publication, “Multiservice Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Health Service Support in a Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Environment (FM 4-02.7),” establishes doctrinal multiservice tactics, techniques, and procedures (MTTPs) for health service support (HSS) units operating in a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) and toxic industrial material (TIM) environment. It is the intent of this document to inform the combatant commanders (CCDRs), joint force commanders (JFCs), joint force medical commanders and medical planners, and component commanders and their staffs on the tools available to provide the best quality of force health protection (FHP) and HSS in a CBRN environment to enhance mission success. This publication bridges the gaps between Service and joint HSS publications. This publication provides information for use by the component commanders and their staffs, command surgeons, medical planners, and individuals responsible for FHP and HSS in a CBRN environment. Commanders have the direct responsibility for protecting their forces within a CBRN environment. On future battlefields, failure to properly plan and execute CBRN defensive operations may result in significant casualties, disruption of operations, and even mission degradation. Further, the commander's mission and execution plans must address the implications of HSS in a CBRN environment. This publication contains MTTPs relative to HSS in the following specific areas: Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear aspect of HSS, Casualty prevention, Casualty care and management, Patient movement, Patient decontamination, Veterinary service support and food and water safety, Medical laboratory support, Combat and operational stress control (COSC), Health service logistic (HSL) support (HSLS), Homeland defense, Individual and collective protection systems.

This book was released on 2013-04-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual revises and combines Multiservice Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Reconnaissance and the now rescinded MTTP for Biological Surveillance manuals by incorporating shifting and emerging guidance, lessons learned, concepts and technologies to address doctrinal gaps identified in the CBRN Passive Defense Capabilities Based Assessment and from Service feedback. Accordingly, this publication is renamed: Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Reconnaissance and Surveillance. Its primary purpose is to provide a standardized reference for use by all Services while conducting CBRN R&S operations. This publication contains several key modifications that were required to update and coalesce existing R&S doctrine. It is ultimately designed to provide commanders with detailed, timely, and accurate CBRN intelligence to gain situational understanding of CBRN threats and hazards. Using a "plan, prepare, and execute" construct, this publication seeks to organize those activities necessary to ensure effective resource management and synchronize the efforts of staffs and leaders. In particular, execution activities are organized into a structural hierarchy that seeks to illustrate the elements of CBRN R&S. These elements are forms, modes, methods, tasks, and techniques. CBRN reconnaissance operations are partitioned into three possible forms (route, zone, and area), as are CBRN surveillance operations (area, point, and medical). There are three modes common to CBRN reconnaissance and surveillance (mounted, dismounted, and aerial), while there are four methods (standoff, remote, direct, and indirect). There are five common CBRN R&S tasks (detect, identify, quantify, collect samples, and report). CBRN reconnaissance-unique tasks (locate, survey, and mark) are supported by thirteen specific techniques, and CBRN surveillance-unique tasks (observe and monitor) have four embedded techniques. This structure is intended to provide a systematic means of promoting the production of usable information that supports the commander's critical information requirements (CCIR) relative to CBRN threats and hazards. The selection of the appropriate CBRN R&S element to satisfy information requirements is accomplished after methodically allowing for the mission, enemy, terrain and weather, troops and support available, time available, and civil considerations (METT-TC). Another significant change in this manual is the migration to the new Department of Defense (DOD) four-tier system for determining the identity of CBRN hazards. The identification levels are: presumptive, field confirmatory, theater validation, and definitive. This publication becomes the proponent for doctrinal definitions of these four identification levels. It must be noted that forward-deployed U.S. Navy medical assets possess the ability to conduct field confirmatory and theater validation level analyses and, as such, have opted to continue to operate in the legacy three-tiered system. These identification levels support applied military decisionmaking at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels. Finally, this publication introduces the sample management process and notes the vital role played by precise sample collection techniques in eventually providing commanders with the analyzed data necessary to make informed CBRN protection, prophylaxis, and medical treatment decisions. While environmental samples and clinical specimens are included in the sample management process, clinical specimens are only collected by specially trained personnel. Clinical specimens will not be discussed in this manual, and the reader should refer to Multiservice Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Health Service Support in a CBRN environment for more information on clinical specimen collection.
