Bomb class delved into University grade physics, chemistry, engineering and x-ray qualifications (which is why the x-ray badge). After that common sense and nerves - esp; for the long walk. That is when you walk towards the device to render it safe. You hope there isn't a timer or radio control device on the device. A person known to me was killed when a device was left in a building. Cat 1 had to be disarmed. A 10 minute soak- time was allowed for things to settle down and nothing happened and the area was quiet. He did the walk, went thro the door into the building and the devices' countdown timer reached 0 and detonated. Thats the luck of the game.

The long black thing is a H E A T round. High Exp. Anti-Tank. shaped charge causes things like misnay shardin effect to take place. See Mis-Shar- photo in collection.
