Enhanced Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (E-NBC)

NBC used to mean "nobody cared," now it is a very big issue. In an effort to promote a mutual exchange of tactics and information, the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit's (Special Operations Capable) Small Scale Chemical/Biological Incident Response Force Team have set up training sessions with allied Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (NBC) units. The new Enhanced Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (E-NBC) full-body suit allows Marines to conduct normal physical tasks while remaining fully protected from harmful contaminants.
