Canadian Forces find, destroy 680 kg of IEDs

Awesome!!!

Well done.

h/t to the operators and especially to the citizens who pointed them out.

good stuff

That's a significant find and one that's going to set back the IED threat for quite a while. Their going to have to buy and carry it all in from Iran or Pakistan all over again.

I wish I could be on the disposal team Did I mention I like explotions?

Did I ever mention....I don't like LOUD noises.....

I lost a couple of associates a couple of years ago due to improperly stored UXO. We wanted to destroy it in smaller batches, but the Taiwanese wanted to salvage the steel for their souvenier knives.

how some countries handle explosives can be just appaling.

Keep on the chain to get loaded.

Im going to ask the RSM for a AEOD position that has come up for Cold Lake, I hope I get it.

I was Kinmen, and they have absolutely no idea where any of the shit is buried. We were supposed to be clearing a few beaches and some areas for expanding an old reservoir and other infrastructure jobs. The UXO there's from 1949 until about 80. It includes various types of mines and artillery rounds(which is really what they want because of the high grade steel) they (Taiwanese and Chinese) lobbed at each other

I love news like this. People who don't think we are accomplishing anything over there only need to read articles like these. Unfortunately they aren't reported often enough.
