 Training and operating the M26 decon system isn’t always a top priority for many units. But troops need to be properly trained to operate it. Putting M26 decon system mock drills on your unit’s training schedule will help Soldiers:
 
  • Know their equipment (including BII and COEI).
     
  • Identify set-up, disassembly and storage procedures.
     
  • Perform Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS).
     
  • Regularly exercise equipment.
     
  • Identify individual and team tasks.
