reports should NOT be delayed for lack
of information.

type (the first nuclear attack,
the first biological attack, or

the attack, and Line M (nuclear) is
measured 10 minutes after the attack. 
Submit the NBC 1 nuclear report
after Line L or Line M is measured. 
The M256-series chemical agent
detector kit takes 16 minutes to
