  • In the UK, tri-service Explosive Ordnance Disposal specialists respond to an average eight callouts per day.
    For the Armed Forces, its 'bomb squad' operators are constantly trained to be able to respond to a diverse range of potential explosives emergencies.
    Forces News was granted exclusive access to their annual test exercise - which allows personnel to remain qualified and part of the team.

    Great to see EOD being Championed by Forces News. A much under appreciated British Army Branch, of which, were so critical to British Operations in Afghanistan, whilst also being a vital capability to Today’s Asymmetric Battlefield!👍

      No. Because 'demolitions' is not EOD in UK (although the 'school' is "DEMSS") Mind you, there was that one incident in Birmingham a few years ago ...
