Dress quickly!

HANSCOM AFB, Mass. -- Hanscom Airmen quickly don Mission Protective Posture gear and gas masks during the 551st Electronic Systems Wing's Warrior Day Sept. 12. During the day's events, Airmen practiced various battlefield skills including weapons handling, Self Aid and Buddy Care techniques and wearing MOPP gear, which protects wearers from chemical and biological agents. Following a biological or chemical attack, every second that people remain exposed to the toxins greatly reduces their chances for survival. (U.S. Air Force photo by Mark Wyatt)
