This book is dedicated to the memory of Fire Chief Warren E. Isman, Fairfax County Fire Department. he was a person that recognized the need for training hazardous materials response team personnel long before it was fashionable, someone who pressed onward at every opportunity to assure that the issue was not obscured by political rhetoric, and who was lost to the fire service before he was through with the task.
