Soldiers from 76th ORC improved their readiness, and overall effectiveness in the areas of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) during Red Dragon 24 at Dugway Proving Ground. Our CBRN Warriors train to detect threats, decontaminate personnel, equipment, and military vehicles.
The ability to adapt to challenges while neutralizing threats can change the outcome of a mission. Thats why long-term testing of the Aerosol Vapor Chemical Agent Detector, or AVCAD, is taking place at Dugway Proving Ground.
Soldiers and civilians at Dugway joined the Dugway Fire Department to honor the memory of those who lost their lives on 9/11 with a memorial walk. They celebrated the lives of the survivors by building comradery during a pancake breakfast.

COVID-19 vaccinations continue at Dugway Proving Ground, with more than 500 doses given by 5 March 2021.
Emergency responders received the first inoculations in mid-January; eventually all DPG employeesā€”both civilians and contractorsā€”will be given the opportunity to get the vaccine to protect the workforce and ensure the continuation of the Dugway Proving Ground mission.
Dugway Proving Ground chemists have developed a new method for solid sorbent tube (SST) analysis of chemical warfare agents (CWA). The innovative approach is to analyze an eluate from the SST using a Gas Chromatography Triple Quadrople Mass Spectrometry (GC-QQQ) instead of thermally analyzing the SST using a Gas Chromatography - Flame Photometric Detector (GC-FPD).
