    Chemical Biological Incident Response Force (CBIRF)

    The Marines and Sailors of the Chemical Biological Incident Response Force (CBIRF), II Marine Expeditionary Force conduct training alongside the Fire Department of New York at their Fire Academy at Randall's Island, NY. The week-long training evolution includes rope training and high-angle rescue, vehicle extrication, response to structural collapse, and low-light search and rescue. These are all techniques used by CBIRF personnel when responding to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive incidents (CBRNE). CBIRF is prepared to respond with minimal warning to crisis in order to assist local, state, or federal agencies and the geographic combatant commanders in the conduct of CBRNE response or consequence management operations. The Marines and Sailors that comprise CBIRF come from more than 40 military occupational specialties and train year round in a variety of venues with multiple agencies to carry out the unit’s unique mission.
