HAPPY 84TH BIRTHDAY TO THE U.S. EXPLOSIVE ORDNANCE DISPOSAL COMMUNITY! On this day in 1941, the first U.S. Navy mine disposal class graduated, laying the foundation for all U.S. military EOD programs. From dismantling German delayed-action bombs in WWII to neutralizing IEDs in Iraq and Afghanistan, EOD technicians have spent 84 years courageously confronting danger to save lives. | U.S. Department of War

How do you get rid of old ammo? Sometimes you just have to blow it up! At least that’s the way explosive ordnance technicians from the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps and United States Air Force did it during joint training in Kuwait! | U.S. Department of War
