A training film based on biological warfare defense and decontamination of U.S. ships in the United States. Animation depicts a U.S. Navy officer drawing BW (Biological Warfare) agents into his respiratory system through nose and mouth. Use of protective gas masks which filter BW agents. BW agents enter the body through various portals. Animation depicts BW agents entering body through a cut on the body. Gun crews of a ship. It is explained how protection below the deck can be achieved. The working of an electrostatic precipitator is explained. Animation depicts an enemy airplane releasing a cloud of aerosol spray containing disease producing agents over a U.S. ship underway in sea. Demonstration by a ship equipped with a water curtain shows high pressure nozzles flooding the decks of the ship with water so that the BW particles which fell over the ship are washed over side.

U.S. Army damage control personnel work with an air sampling kit for a biological warfare test aboard a U.S. ship in the U.S.

A training film based on biological warfare defense aboard a U.S. ship in the United States. Damage control personnel work with an air sampling kit to take air samples. A man puts a liquid in an impinger and prepares two molecular filters. He takes out a tube containing a nutrient which is the food for bacteria. He fits a filter on one of the impinger and removes cotton plugs. The man connects the impinger to a pump. The pump draws air through the impinger and BW (Biological Warfare) agents are trapped in the liquid. The impinger is inverted, the liquid goes through the filter and bacteria is caught on it. The man removes the filter and the liquid is kept in a container. The liquid from the impinger is also preserved. Samples are sent to a hospital ship by a helicopter for analysis. Laboratory testing of the samples. A man injects an animal to identify the BW agent. A doctor aboard the ship examines the laboratory results.

The criteria for selecting a biological warfare agent in the United States, and views of laboratory work on biological warfare.

A training film based on medical defense against chemical warfare and biological warfare in the United States. The criteria for selecting a biological warfare agent includes infectivity, pathogenicity, persistency, casualty effectiveness, possibility of artificial transmission, immunization and therapy and availability. Shows how an ideal BW (biological warfare) agent affects exposed personnel. Pathogenicity tests in laboratory shows a laboratory worker giving intraperitoneal injection of botulism to a mouse. A one ounce bottle contains 250 million lethal of a toxin. A technician in a government laboratory works. The technician drops one of the bottle containing viruses. Taking the usual precautions he washes his hands. A training film based on medical defense against biological warfare in the United States.
