At MOPP level 1 Afloat, which items are required to be readily accessible?

At MOPP level 1 Afloat, the primary focus is on maintaining readiness for a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) attack while still allowing some operational flexibility. The correct choice involves items that are essential for individual protection in a CBRN environment.

JSLIST (Joint Service Lightweight Integrated Suit Technology), mask, and gloves are specifically designed to protect personnel from hazardous agents. These items must be readily accessible because they form the first line of defense in the event of a CBRN incident. The JSLIST suit provides a protective barrier, while the mask and gloves ensure that exposure to harmful agents is minimized. This aligns with the requirements at MOPP level 1 Afloat, emphasizing the need for immediate access to personal protective equipment.

Other options, while they pertain to safety and operational readiness, do not fulfill the immediate necessity for individual protection in the same way. Overboots and gloves, canteens and decon supplies, and countermeasure washdown equipment focus on different aspects of readiness and response but are not the primary items that individuals must have on hand when preparing for potential threats typical of MOPP level 1.
