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.
