MEN AT ALL CAMPS RECEIVE
INSTRUCTION IN GAS
DEFENSE.

At each cantonment in the United
States a school has been established
where every officer and man receives
instruction in gas defense. The Am
erican gas mask similar to the Brit
ish, is as mechanically perfect as the
best experts have been able to pro-
duce. The face piece, with glass or
celluloid eyepieces, is connected by a
flexible tube with canister carried
in knapsack. The incoming breath
comes through the canister, which
is filled with several layers of chem
icals which neutralize or render harm
less the gas-laden air. Outgoing
breath passes outside the face piece
through small valve.
The student in gas defense soon
learns to get his mask on in hurry
six seconds being the standard time
when the knapsack containing the
mask is hanging at his chest in the
"alert" position. After intensive
training gas mask attack is ar
ranged. The class is put in trenches
and without warning, Clouds of smoke
and chlorine are liberated by the in
structors, masks are hurriedly put on
alarms sounded, and sleeping men in
dugouts aroused. When the attack
ceases the trenches are cleared of gas
the air is tested, and permission is
given to remove masks.
