Quite possibly - but would your average marine reqocnize them - I doubt it. I certainly don't know the IAEA logo.[/QUOTE]Whether an average Marine would recognize the stuff does not matter. The clearing unit was an Engineer unit. They are familiar with all kinds of construction and hazardous material. They even have NBC specialists to handle NBC hazards. While I don't know the IAEA logo - since the HAZMAT was Radiological, it would have to have been labeled with the INTERNATIONAL symbol for radiological hazards. I know that that symbol is part of NBC training for all US forces. Troops are trained to not go near those symbols - let the NBC experts handle it.
