Airmen and Air Force Guardians are required to complete new chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) defense training tasks before Dec. 31. The requirements include gas mask seal tests, according to both outlets.
The guidance links the CBRN requirements to efforts to reinforce updated grooming standards. The articles describe two new defense-related requirements that service members must finish by the deadline. While both sources frame the change in terms of readiness and compliance with the new grooming policy, they do not describe additional details such as specific test procedures, who administers them, or what happens for non-compliance.
