Level A suits (4 pics)

Took these with an S330 a couple of years ago during some hazmat training my old agency's bomb squad did with the local fire department... Re-organizing my photo folder and ran across them.

"Why do I always have to be the last one off the decon line?"

"No, really, guys, you don't need a suit... these flower shorts are level B at least!"

Oh, it gets worse; we also use mineral water bottles and drinking straws! :) Actually, kiddie pools are pretty common for decon lines as a cheap, quick way to contain contaminated run-off. You've got to remember that everything that went into the hot zone has to be thoroughly decontaminated or disposed of... lot cheaper to dispose of kiddie pools. There's all kinds of on-going debates on what to use, like common duct tape vs. expensive chem-tape for sealing suits, etc. etc.

However, no matter what you use, those suits are hot, humid, and uncomfortable.
