Countering the threat of IEDs

MAIN OPERATING BASE LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan -- Airman 1st Class Seth Reinhart, an Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician from the 466th EOD Flight, Operating Location-Delta, pushes a robot from his team’s armored truck so they can train for a mission. The robot is used by the EOD team to get close to suspected Improvised Explosive Devices while they stay protected in an armored vehicle. The mission of the Airmen of OL-D is primarily focused on countering the IED threat, destroying enemy caches and munitions stockpiles, and responding to threats of indirect fire.
