U.S. Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) is the world's premier combat force for countering Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs) and all other Unexploded Ordnance (UXO). An elite team of warriors, 1,500 Navy EOD Technicians operate in every environment around the world. They are qualified to parachute from 30,000 feet and dive to depths of 300 feet. Volunteering for the most hazardous missions, Navy EOD is the "first in" - clearing the way for further combat operations, fearlessly attacking all explosive obstructions. The Navy EOD exhibit includes an authentic bomb disposal suit and robot on display and details the history, methods and personel that make up the world's most capable and far reaching explosive-handling experts.
