Good Times, 1983 Ft. Knox. You had to watch out for the big tree when you came out of the gas chamber with snout hang down and can't see very well. Retired 1SG 2004.

Ft. Sill Oklahoma in 1998, still remember it. Funny thing is years later when I transitioned into the Air Force I was the guy conducting those "confidence chambers". 20+ years on and i'm still in uniform. Freaking LOVE IT!

Thank you all for your service.

Ft. Bliss 1969. Even ate a little CS when we were gassing tunnels in Nam.

Ft Dix in 1989. Thought I was going to get to miss it since I had kp that day. Drill Sergeant replaced me with someone else. Said the guidon bearer had to always be with the platoon.

Fort Leonard Wood had a metal box house if i recalll correctly and it did suck! 1989

Yep and it was the worse experience thought basic. One of the guys ran out, and they left us in there while they tracked him down to bring him back in. We got an extra dose.

Almost switched to the Bio-hazard NCO until I got told I'd have to go into the gas chamber again for the MOS. Nope

Didn't mind the gas as bad as fire fighting in those ship mock ups.
