It was CWDE when I was sucking rubber in an M17 (that's the gas mask the MP tossed up to the retired Colonel on the Embassy grounds in Saigon when the Tet Offensive started. The gas mask was tossed up after the 1911 was tossed up but I digress) those filters won't help. Those were the ones that "you'd will die before you could change them out in a chemical environment."Is CWDE the country club version of CBRN? I don’t think buying life safety stuff at 5he gun show or Army/Navy store is in my future. I’m looking for a source for fresh up to date stuff. Lots of LE uses M40’s still but I may jump to a 50 or an Avon respirator when funds allow. Hadn’t thought much of CBRN threats, but it’s now back on my radar.
Army never used the term that’s why I wasn’t familiar. I grew up in the 80’s Army we used the M17, but were going to the M40 as I was going to not care anymore. I was looking for a reliable source for fresh cans for the -40.It was CWDE when I was sucking rubber in an M17 (that's the gas mask the MP tossed up to the retired Colonel on the Embassy grounds in Saigon when the Tet Offensive started.

What was your question again? Was it concerning the color of the filter?
Edit: CWDE is Chemical Warfare Defense Equipment. CBRN (formerly NBC) is why there is CWDE.
Our Flu is killing more people in the US that this Chinese Flu, be more concerned by that. Wash your filthy hands...
And put your arm, nose into the inside of the elbow, to sneeze or cough. STOP with the cover with your hand, you just put the contagion on your hands to spread around.
And for Gods sake, wash you hands after the bathroom. This issue is even in the women's room today as I hear from my wife and her friends.
You’re probably safer NOT washing your hands after the bathroom as long as you don’t **** on your fingers.And put your arm, nose into the inside of the elbow, to sneeze or cough. STOP with the cover with your hand, you just put the contagion on your hands to spread around.

Reminds me of a story that a guy I used to work with told me. Apparently he didn't wash his hands after using the urinal and someone admonished him for it saying, "Didn't your dad teach you to wash your hands after going to the bathroom?" His answer was, "No, my dad taught me not to pee on my hands."
If one believes that washing their hands is due to getting pizz on them they are just ignorant. Human genitalia are a warm moist environment that is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. And you thought you controlled all the sex that went on down there.
Heck one can drink pizz and it will not hurt you in all but rare cases...
Additional point, I will admit that I have been in a few bathrooms that I did not wash, as I felt I was cleaner the the facilities. But I see guys in high end fancy restaurants not wash...
