21st Century U.S. Army NBC Defense of Theater Fixed Sites, Ports, and Airfields (FM 3-11.34) - Multiservice Procedures for Nuclear, Biological, and ... List, Assets, Mitigation, Domestic Terrorism

This is the latest edition of an important U.S. Army field manual (FM) covering the defense of fixed sites from nuclear, biological, and chemical attacks.

In the preface, it states:

"This document is designed for commanders and personnel responsible for nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) defense planning at theater bases/base clusters. These personnel may be responsible for deliberate and/or crisis planning and may be required to execute plans across the conflict spectrum. This publication provides a multiservice reference for planning, resourcing, and executing the NBC defense of fixed sites, ports, and airfields. Specific tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) are included in its appendixes. During operations, this publication is subordinate to current joint publications addressing this topic. While this document is focused on operations primarily outside the continental United States (OCONUS), it can be used to address acts of chemical, biological, and radiological terrorism against United States (US) force generation sites."
