A gas mask can help us now in the event of a riot, terrorist attack, or other less than favorable in which either Chemical, Biological, Radiological, or Nuclear (CBRN) materials may be used. They can also be on the field of battle where they have their deep roots in place but they can be used in other methods as well. Should pandemic disease also occur and be passed through airborne transmission, it could bery well be used to curb infection opposed to a bulky Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).
The gasmask provides a method for filtering harmful chemicals out of an atmosphere by either forcing air through holes too small for the offending chemicals to pass through, or through an activated charcol filter, which strips the offending chemicals from the air and bonding it to the charcol.
In short: It seperates poison gas from the air.

Do you put the name on your gas mask box?
Yes, the Britons put their names on their boxes holding their gas mask. They took it with them everywhere they went. They hung nicely on your forearm near the elbow. If you would like to see what they looked like and how they used them you can see a great old movie called Journey for Margaret. It had Margaret O'Brien, Robert Young, Lorraine Day and Nigel Bruce. It is a very profound movie that takes place during the Blitz. We have it on TCM in the US. I don't know how you could see it free unless your library has it.
Do you put gas mask around the shoulders or the belt?
Not sure if you're military or police. I'm a SWAT officer on a mid-sized midwestern US police department. We wear ours on our belts. Our vests are heavy plate/tactical equipment carriers and we obviously have our primarys hanging in front, so over the shoulder would interfere. A lot of our guys (and this seems to be unique to our department, as we train with other citys and they don't do it) have their gas masks hanging in front of their groin. Before you dismiss this and laugh at it, it does make some sort of sense. First, in order to do this you have to have a separate belt for the gas mask since, which we do, and it just clips over our duty belt. Hanging it in front serves multiple purposes: 1.) You won't get caught up going through a tight space such as entryway, 2.) It is easily accessible, and 3.) It adds another layer, albeit minimal, of protection--it's not gonna stop a bullet but may deflect blunt object strikes. I've moved my gas mask around a few times and have found both in training and on callouts (where you really find out if the placement of your gear is working) that having it in front is the best. Hope this helps.

How does a face mask help us breathe clearer air?
If you all look closely at the back of the face mask, you can see some tiny holes. When you breathe in the air, the hole will act like the hair in your nose and trap the dust. That will prevent dust from entering your body. That is how face masks help us to breathe cleaner air.

What gas mask the does the Australia Army use?
It depends which unit you are with and who they source their gear from. I have seen the British S10 and the US M40 do the rounds. Anything NATO based can technically be sourced.
