    A firefighter in full turnout gear and SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) is bent over a large red plastic bucket during what appears to be a training exercise. The scene is set indoors on a wet black tarp surface surrounded by orange traffic cones. The setting and equipment suggest a firefighter physical fitness or skills training drill.

    PERRY, Ga. – A role player is directed to decontaminate his boots upon order of the decontamination Marines with Chemical Biological Incident Response Force, CBIRF, during Exercise Scarlet Response 2016 at Guardian Centers, Perry, Ga., Aug. 23, 2016. This exercise is the unit’s capstone event, testing the levels of each individual CBIRF capability with lane training and culminating with a 36-hour simulated response to a nuclear detonation. CBIRF is an active duty Marine Corps unit that, when directed, forward-deploys and/or responds with minimal warning to a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive (CBRNE) threat or event in order to assist local, state, or federal agencies and the geographic combatant commanders in the conduct of CBRNE response or consequence management operations, providing capabilities for command and control; agent detection and identification; search, rescue, and decontamination; and emergency medical care for contaminated personnel.
