Publisher's Synopsis
The employment or threat of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) weapons, including toxic industrial materials (TIMs) pose serious challenges to US military operations worldwide. The deadly, destructive, and disruptive effects of these weapons and materials merit continuous consideration by the joint force commander (JFC) and supporting commanders. The use of CBRN weapons should provide no advantages to adversaries, only harsh additional adverse consequences.
