The threat of poisoned gas and bilogical weapons have been faced by troops on the battlefield. Almost 100 years ago, world war i was known as the chemist war as chlorine and muster gas was used by both sides. Last year president obama said syria admitted to using poisoned gas against its own people to wipe out Opposition Forces and last month the New York Times revealed that american soldiers were exposed to thousands of abandoned chemical weapons in iraq.
