Default G.I. MOPP Gear?

What was standard issue MOPP gear for US troops during the late Cold War? The M42/45 gas mask bag appears to be an integral part of ALICE gear for US troops, so I'm assuming that every front line soldier had at least a gas mask. Were there additional pieces (e.g. gloves) in the bag also? It doesn't look like it could hold a protective suit/boots. If not, where were those pieces kept?
