This concerns us all, and we must take action.
A recent Department of Defense report has highlighted a critical issue: Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) personnel have the highest su***de rate in the U.S. military, a tragic outcome linked to blast injuries to the brain.
The problem is likely even more widespread, as this data only pertains to the USA. If anyone has data from other countries, please share it. This finding underscores the urgent need for enhanced support and interventions for everyone involved.

Hand Gr***de Booklet #16

Austro-Hungarian Hand Gr***de – The Rohr Stielhandgranate

During the initial months of the Great War, many of the hand gr***des used by all combatant nations were improvised explosive devices. These early gr***des often consisted of tins filled with metal fragments or any material likely to cause damage, frequently attached to handles for easier throwing. The Austro-Hungarian Army was no exception. However, by the spring of 1915, these improvised gr***des began to be replaced by more standardized models. The Austrians started importing large quantities of the German Stielhandgranate and also developed their own stick gr***des, notably the Rohr hand gr***de.

The Rohr hand gr***de was a cast-iron cylinder concussion gr***de, filled with explosive material, and typically attached to a cardboard handle. This contrasts with the German Stielhandgranate, which had a wooden stick. However, some photographs suggest that Rohr gr***des occasionally featured wooden sticks, indicating some variability in manufacturing.

The ignition system of the Rohr gr***de was similar to that of the German Stielhandgranate, featuring a seven-second delay fuse. Aside from the Stielhandgranate, the Rohr gr***de became the standard Austro-Hungarian gr***de during the Great War.

The gr***de's head was a cast-iron cylinder, considerably thicker than that of the German Stielhandgranate, filled with explosives and designed to kill through concussion.

In summary, the Rohr gr***de was a more economical version of the German Stielhandgranate, with similar functionality but adapted for Austro-Hungarian production and needs.

Some of our thoughts about . ( We are very happy to hear your thoughts too.)

The global threat posed by explosive ordnance is currently at its peak and is projected to escalate in the coming years. This includes various complexities such as new types of explosive ordnance, challenges in urban warfare, underwater EO risks, and the looming danger of indigenous chemical warfare.

What's truly remarkable is the concerted effort by the international community to address these risks head-on. There's a palpable sense of urgency driving the exploration of new technologies and methodologies to counter these threats more effectively than ever before. It's heartening to witness even long-standing figures in mine action, often dubbed as "dinosaurs," embracing these innovations with fervor. Their enthusiasm is reminiscent of a time long past, revitalizing the field.

While the sentiment "There's no silver bullet" is frequently echoed, it's crucial to continually innovate across various fronts: from technological advancements and methodological approaches to legal frameworks and financial strategies. Embracing change and pushing the boundaries of convention is imperative to stay ahead in the battle against explosive ordnance threats.

It has been reported on social media that the RuAF has used the P-35 anti-ship missile in Ukraine for the first time. This missile has a high-explosive warhead that weighs 560 kilograms and can even be equipped with a nuclear warhead. The P-35 missile has a top speed of Mach 1.8 and can hit targets that are up to 300 kilometres away. One unique feature of this missile is its combined guidance system that includes radio command control and a radar station, which allows it to change its flight path. The missile can be launched from both Redut mobile and stationary Utes complexes as well as from ships and submarines.

It's difficult to say for sure without more information, but based on the photos, the missile could have been used as a decoy or shot down.

The history of the largest explosions

#1 The Wanggongchang Explosion 1626

The Wanggongchang Explosion refers to a historical incident that occurred on May 30, 1626, during the Ming dynasty in China. Wanggongchang was a gunpowder factory located in Beijing, and the explosion at this facility is considered one of the most devastating in the history of explosions related to gunpowder production.

Details of the Wanggongchang Explosion:

Date: May 30, 1626.

Location: Wanggongchang, Beijing, Ming Dynasty (present-day China).

Cause: The explosion was a result of mishandling or a production error at the gunpowder factory.

Consequences: The blast was immensely powerful and caused widespread destruction in the surrounding areas. Historical accounts suggest that numerous buildings were leveled, and the explosion had a significant impact on the city of Beijing.

Casualties: The explosion resulted in a large number of casualties, including deaths and injuries. The exact number of casualties is not precisely documented in historical records, but it is believed to have been more than 20.000 deaths.

The Wanggongchang Explosion is notable not only for its destructive power but also for its historical significance, occurring during a period when gunpowder played a crucial role in Chinese military and technological advancements. The incident serves as a reminder of the inherent dangers associated with the production and storage of explosive materials, especially during historical periods when the understanding of safety measures might not have been as advanced as it is today.

The history of the largest explosions

#1 Fall of Antwerp 1585

On April 4, 1585, the Dutch attempted to break the Spanish siege of Antwerp by launching four large hellburners (explosive fire ships) on the fortified bridge named "Puente Farnesio". Only one of the four hellburners successfully hit the bridge, but it didn't explode immediately, which created a deceptive situation. Some Spanish soldiers, believing the ship to be a conventional fire ship, boarded it to extinguish what they assumed was a simple fire. However, a devastating explosion occurred, resulting in the deaths of approximately 800 Spaniards who were on the bridge. The explosion threw bodies, rocks, and pieces of metal over a considerable distance, causing widespread destruction. The impact generated a small tsunami in the River Scheldt, and the ground shook for kilometers around. The blast was so powerful that it was felt as far as 35 kilometers (22 miles) away in Ghent, where windows vibrated and a large, dark cloud covered the area.

Many people outside of the EOD sector believe that a Bomb Suit is just heavy ballistic body armour, but it's not. In reality, it's an ingenious technical solution designed to withstand the pressure generated by a bomb and any fragments the bomb may produce, with many small technical solutions that make this possible.

We examined some of the technical solutions offered by the 4030 Elite Bomb Disposal Suite and Helmet solution (certified to NIJ 0117.01) to understand its capabilities better.

The first thing that caught our attention was the breastplate. The breastplate of the suit is expertly designed to offer maximum protection while still allowing for full manoeuvrability.

On September 21, 1921, a devastating explosion occurred in Oppau, at a chemical plant. The incident involved , which had solidified in storage silos. Workers attempted to use dynamite to break up the solidified compound, but the resulting explosion was much larger and more destructive than expected. The blast destroyed the silos, nearby buildings, and caused significant damage to the surrounding area, leaving a massive crater at the site. The explosion was heard up to 350 kilometres (about 220 miles) away, causing widespread destruction and casualties. An estimated 500 to 600 people were killed, and thousands more were injured. The city of Ludwigshafen, which was nearby, also suffered significant damage. The explosion serves as a tragic reminder of the potential dangers of mishandling and storing ammonium nitrate, a compound that can become highly explosive under certain conditions. It highlights the need for better safety protocols and handling procedures when working with ammonium nitrate and other hazardous chemicals.

In an unexpected event, a WWII-era aerial bomb detonated in a field in , located in the Land district,, triggering a rapid response from authorities. Fortunately, there were no injuries or significant building damage.

Around 8:44 a.m. on Saturday, an explosion and ensuing smoke were reported in a Vals field. The incident generated multiple emergency calls from concerned residents. Surprisingly, the Austrian earthquake service detected the explosion's shockwaves, measuring a minor magnitude of 1.7.

Police arriving at the scene found a crater approximately 12x12 meters wide and 2-3 meters deep. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and nearby structures remained intact.

Swiftly responding, three police patrols and 30 fire departments from Vals and Schmirn were dispatched. A specialised rescue and explosives team also arrived. An explosives expert later confirmed the explosion resulted from an ageing pilot bomb spontaneously detonating, causing land damage but no personal injuries.

An explosives detection dog searched the area to ensure safety, confirming no further threats. The ongoing investigation considers factors like earth movements after heavy rain or detonator material fatigue.

During the response, the L229 road closed for about two hours, causing local diversions. Thankfully, the nearby railway tunnel remained unaffected, allowing train operations to resume uninterrupted.

This incident underscores the need for vigilant monitoring and rapid coordinated responses to historical artefacts, emphasising public safety.
