"You’re like, ‘ok, gotta remember to breathe, gotta remember I’m moving’, so, most of the old guys have had some experience being shot at, being in firefights, and with the way AfSoc EOD is going, we’re hoping to be involved in more of those kind of ‘forward action’ type missions anyways. " For us civilians, can you translate please? TIA!

I’ll be flying out of Cannon AFB soon on Space-A ..... will stop in my old EOD shop for a visit...... EOD always goes through phases with career climbing administrative sorts that fly a desk and others that know how much C4 to shove up a bulls ass to blow its horns off without making it’s eye’s water. Sorts that are clerks cooks and bottle washers versus triathletes that can shoot scoot loot and render safe a Rolex full of RDX ........

.....As detachments we were very busy building skills. When absorbed by Civil Engineers AFEOD budget was controlled by a Union like environment versus a military unit. Hopefully that affiliation is eliminated very soon between CES and EOD Detachments. Budgets are the limiting factors for skills, CES steals EOD’s bank.
