Explosive Ordinance Disposal is a life-saving capability and makes for a bold career field which the HIANG is excited to launch in the years to come. EOD professionals from the mainland are here attending the Air National Guard EOD Working Group this week to develop their competencies, programs and trajectory of their vocation.

With 17 Explosive Ordinance Disposal units throughout the ANG, the 154th Civil Engineer Squadron is working with career field experts to standup a new EOD shop, comprised of fulltime and part-time Airmen.

Leadership from the 154th Missions Support Group and 154th CES collaborated with the attending Airmen in an outdoor venue and discussed how to effectively startup the local EOD program.
