Well everyone I get to go to the gas chamber tomarrow and enjoy a refreshing breath of CS Gas. It is going to be awsome! I am so excited I had to put my mask on and make sure that it will not leak until I have to remove it and do jumping jacks. LMAO!

How does it look? LMAO!

I guess it'll be as much fun as walking through nasty gas can be.

I could use one of those right about now.

Heh, a friend of mine (who is in the Air Force in Japan) sent me a very similar picture about a year ago. He said they had to spend an entire week working in their chemical suits. He was covered head to toe with a gas mask, some very uncomfortable looking fatigues, and heavy boots. He didn't have to wear the gas mask 100% of the time, but he always had it with him in case they started the alarm. Have fun!

tear gas? enjoy.

CS is an abbreviation for O-chlorobenzylidene malonontrite.

The active ingredient, CS, is one of a group of chemical compounds called lachrymators. These chemicals are tear producing agents, hence the euphemism 'tear gas'. Exposure to them causes severe eye irritation, a profuse flow of tears, skin irritation (especially on moist areas of the body) and irritation of the upper respiratory tract, causing sneezing, coughing and difficulty in breathing.

It was great!

I feel for ya. If it's as bad as the guy next to me then I really feel for ya.

You realize that your clothes are probably all coated in it by now and that you smell like it when you leave? It sucks but if it's in the room you're sitting in, then it's on everything else too.

This is now a fart thread. This is going to be a very unusual disgusting and probably very funny. Hopefully it is any way.

Not much fun. Been through those chambers with the mask off a couple times myself.

MARINEOSX · Nov 18, 2004, 12:31 AM

friend of mine had to do that, said it was the nastiest thing he ever did, green **** poured out of almost every orifice.

Yet another reason why I'm glad I'll never be in the military.
