U.S. Marines from 3rd Marine Division, Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear defense platoon, Headquarters Battalion, III Marine Expeditionary Force, practiced using assessment and consequence management gear during exercise Habu Sentinel 16 at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, May 30 – June 8, 2016. Provided to each major subordinate command for their platoons to utilize, the Marine Air Ground Task Force ACM set provides the division with enhanced CBRN proficiencies above those available to subordinate units, including CBRN technical rescue and the necessary response capabilities to support national military strategy for countering weapons of mass destruction and other contingency operations. As the annual capstone exercise for the division’s response element, this event encompasses multiple objectives specific to CBRN response and validates unit standard operating procedures in an unfamiliar training environment.
