Can female soldiers who are Nursing go to the NBC Chamber?

Question

....If not is there an army reg for it? The post partum profile says nothing about NBC training...I know pregnant soldiers cant im just worried about soldiers who are nursing.

Answer 1

You might want to ask your doctor. I don't think it'll hurt anything, but you never know with that stuff.

Answer 2

The CS used in the chamber is unpleasant, but not toxic.  And unless you deliberately inhale a snootful, you really won't endanger either yourself or your infant.

Once you're out of the chamber and back home, shake out your uniform real well OUTDOORS, then wash it.  Take a cool shower first to rinse any residual powder off your skin, then follow that with a normal shower.  No worries, mate.
