US Army, TREATING CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL AGENT CASUALTIES, SUBCOURSE MD0534, Survival Medical Manual
In future conflicts, soldiers must be prepared to function in a field environment contaminated by chemical or biological agents. This subcourse is designed to provide instruction in protecting yourself from chemical and biological agents and in providing care in the field to soldiers who have been exposed to chemical or biological agents.
Chemical agents are fast acting. You must be prepared to quickly perform the necessary triage and treatment procedures in the event of a chemical agent attack. Biological agents usually act at a slower rate. The major emphasis of this subcourse is chemical agents and chemical agent casualties.
Protection against chemical and biological agents and self-aid procedures for exposure to nerve agents are presented in this subcourse for two reasons.

Also, you must make sure that other soldiers take proper precautions and know how to perform self-aid/buddy-aid procedures.

Lesson 1, Chemical Agents and Protection from Chemical Agents.
