Does anyone know if you can buy a nuclear shelter or protective suits to protect yourself against chemical/biological warfare?

why bother - you probably won't be home when the bomb hits anyway.

sorry.. not yet.. though you could get rich quick if you can come up with a design for one and sell it.  I've seen some people carry them on ankle holsters, or sew a small pouch on the inside of jackets and coats.

Go to rangerjoe.com, they will have the patch you want.  They carry all kinds of patches and military gear.  Good luck and have a good day.

SPC, there are a number of organizations you can find that will send you care packages if you give them you raddress as opposed to begging in public.\n\nhttp://www.treatsfortroops.com/\nhttp://www.anysoldier.com/\nhttp://www.operationwecare.com/\nhttp://www.opgratitude.com/\nhttp://www.americasupportsyou.mil/\n\nTo list a very few.  Please gather your dignity and remember you represent more than yourself when you are wearing that uniform.\n\nTo those of you reading this, instead of singling out one soldier to send gifts to, please consider supporting these organizations and spread your support and generosity.\n\nOr, if you wish to support othe organizations that do tangible service work for troops every single day, consider buying stock in Haliiburton, KBR, DHL, Hessco, Conrack....\n\nSGT Robert White

A good start might be a documentary like Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11". You could also try "Control Room" (a behind-the-scenes at Al-Jazeera) or "The Power Of Nightmares" (a staggering BBC documentary about the war on terror). \n\nMore effective may be introducing your son (I'm guessing it's your son) to veterans of recent combat engagements. Stories of life on the ground may change his mind.\n\nFor the record, I don't think talking someone out of joining the army is either unpatriotic or cowardly. The US government has engaged in a conflict with lousy reasons for joining, and no exit strategy. I get sick every time I hear the "they knew the risk when they signed up" argument. Yes, military people agree to risk their lives when they put their uniform, but they should expect their commanders to only risk their lives when absolutely necessary.

I don't think so, I was in the Navy and I knew a girl that was allergic to latex.  Thats not a serious condition to prevent you from joining the military.  Something like bedwetting, sleepwalking, back injuries, certain disabilities, ect ect.  Allergies won't prevent a person from joining.

If you had some sort of infinite oxygen supply (highly unlikely) and a air tight bunker sort of thing, it could be possible.\n\nThe outside would have to be something very non-absorbant to heat/light, yet still maintains insulation. It would probably be very expensive, and really limit your living conditions. Uncomfortable, boring, etc.\n\nThen there's always the question of food/water.

If you want easy, then take MRE ( Meal Ready to Eat ) available at military stores or camping stores. These are packed in waterproof plastic and are everything you need.

"Secretary of Health and Human Services Michael Leavitt recommended over the weekend that Americans start storing provisions such as canned tuna and powdered milk as the prospect of a bird flu outbreak approaches the United States." <http://www.worldmagblog.com/blog/archives/023196.html>  Actually he said to put it under your bed.\n\nA really good defense is to wash your hands frequently and always before touching your face.

We have plans in place. There are entire departments devoted to bioterrorism surveillance.\n\nThere are protocols that have been standardized for dealing with major biological disasters. I work for a major metropolitan health department, so we train extensively for these things. Fortunately, we have not yet needed to use the training. \n\nWe use the the Incident Command System to organize ourselves to deal with disasters. That's a hierarchy to delegate tasks across groups of workers. Pick a person to be in charge of a small group. Let that person make orders, you report back with your info and duties.\n\nIn the event of any biological incident, my specific role as an epidemiologist would be to find the incident, identify it and control it. Of course, if there's a real disaster at hand, I think I'll have to do the same heavy lifting as everyone else. Gotta prioritize.

Heck yeah man. Cyrogenics, Radiation, Lifesupport Suits, I'll be surprised if there ISN'T!

I am sure that every terrorist will be rushing down to their local Walmart in order to buy some.\n\nIt probably on the shelf next to the "Dirty Bomb DIY kit", just below the family size bottles of Uranium-235.

You might want to try a military surplus store.  We used them all the time in the Army.

I suppose it is plausible, providing that the anti-toxin would effectively work in the water supply or have sufficient potency to inoculate the populace from possible biological attacks.  Yet it seems that such an endeavor, done on a national level, would be extremely expensive.
