That's pretty bad, although I think the lesson of Desert Storm is that NBC tasks are in the middle tier of iportance, at best. Even countries that posess significant chemical arsenals are unlikely to actually employ them against the U.S.

Nuclear weapons are a different story, and we'v never directly fought a nuclear-armed country. However, I've also never seen any serious training on how to fight in a nuclear environment. I have an old FM in my office on the topic but it hasn't received serious attention since I've been in the Army.

Yeah, I don't really care about NBC training that much, but it's less depressing than remembering the last time they had me shoot an M-16 ;)
