| Summary: | Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats remain the fundamental focus of defense on the battlefield. In developed Western countries and transnational military organizations, training for CBRN threats is conducted primarily in specialized military bases. This article summarizes the facility construction, design of the training courses and equipment of important CBRN bases of foreign armies and describes the representative scenario-based training programs, for example, Muscataturk Urban Training Center (USA), Vibrant Response (USA). Hohenfels Training Area (German), CBRN training of Oberammergau College of NATO, and the CBRN Defense Center of the Department of Defense of the United Kingdom, providing also details concerning the military forces participating in the training, their specific tasks and items in the training. The practices of the foreign militaries in base-conducted CBRN training offer valuable experiences that may help to improve CBRN training and medical service support of the armed forces in China.
