Oh Gods!

 

This is a capture of a warning from The Gasmask and Respirator Wiki article on the M25 mask.

I wore an M25 often and for hours at a time.

The filter in question is the M10A1.  The, older, M10 filter sometimes contained asbestos.

Pick your brand of lung cancer!

I don't have any lung cancer at the moment, but the list of potential carcinogens (real ones not just shit that causes cancer in California) I was exposed to in tanks is getting longer and longer.

I'd been all worried about exposure to turbo-shaft oil and the gas mask was what I really should have been paying attention to!
