An account of hospital support during COVID describes mask fitting by a police instructor experienced in forensic work in hazardous environments. Familiarity with sealed protective masks transfers usefully to infection-control work. Military personnel are also described as helpful because CBRN training gives them an existing understanding of biological hazards and respirator requirements. The clinical setting requires different equipment from a battlefield, but the shared training vocabulary helps explain the task. The suggested connection rests on the participant's hospital experience.
