Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group

Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Groups are specialized military units trained to handle, disarm, and dispose of explosive devices, including bombs, landmines, and other ordnance. Their primary goal is to ensure public safety by neutralizing potential threats. EOD personnel undergo rigorous training to assess risks, use advanced technology, and apply careful techniques to render explosives safe. These groups operate in various settings, including combat zones and disaster areas, and often collaborate with law enforcement and humanitarian organizations to address explosive hazards effectively. Their work is critical for maintaining security and protecting lives in both military and civilian contexts.
