Unit Chemical and Biological Defense Readiness Training

Abstract

We conducted this audit at the request of the Deputy Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Counterproliferation and Chemical/Biological Defense. This report is the second in a series of reports on the readiness of U.S. forces to operate in a chemical and biological warfare environment. A previous report discussed chemical and biological survivability of mission-essential equipment. This report focuses on unit chemical and biological defense training. A subsequent report will discuss joint chemical and biological defense training. The overall audit objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of chemical and biological defense readiness training among U.S. forces. Additionally, we evaluated the management control program related to the overall audit objective.
