Reflection Paper

After reading A National Strategy for CBRNE Standards found at https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/ostp/chns_cbrne_standards_final_24_aug_11.pdf and No blue canaries: implementing a PPE program protects the protectors from your required reading, compose a paper discussing what you have learned about the primary considerations and associated complications that must be addressed regarding the use and interoperability of CBRNE equipment among the various agencies and organizations (first response and other) that will have responsibilities to operate in a CBRNE attack environment. Be sure to address access and availability of CBRNE PPE and personal monitoring equipment, challenges of employing and operating the tools of your trade while in CBRNE PPE (for example: weapons, communications equipment, stethoscopes, etc.) in an ongoing multi-modal terrorist attack, the operational periods that civilian CBRNE equipment will permit, and limitations related to the ability to share resources due to standardization of equipment. Finally, discuss the importance of maintaining PPE and the role of research and development of future chemical and biological detection and PPE technologies in helping to keep first responders and others safe. Your paper should consist of no less than 500 words, and references and citations must be provided using APA format.
