I think its amazing what you guys do. It takes some guts. Did you do any fighting when you were out there? I don't know much about the military. What are you in the Army, Navy or RAF? Must be quite fun. Great pics and video. Good song too!
As for the comment about 'don't mess with the muslims' - don't put everyone under the same heading as it is not muslims in general but fanatical idiots with no respect and/or concern for human life.
I do wish people would have the decency (& the intelligence) to understand the role that EOD undertake before they pass comments-not have this stupid illusion of soldiers 'invading' other countries & shooting anything that moves!Our guys/gals in all trades of the British Army do a fab job, we should all remember that & give them our support-that doesn't mean we have to agree with the political issues that surround the situations they are in as they do not choose to be involved, it's their job.
You read thought some of these comments and well my my there are some bitter people out there . So to clear up the troubles when they first started in NI the devices or booby traps were cleared by RE EOD or wedge heads as we are called .Then it went to the ATO`s that is true and yes in iraq and afghan they are earning thier money but so are the wedge heads by doing what they do with booby traps , uxo and mines and lets face it more are killed or maimed at the mo from mines .
And also remember these wedge heads are not just EOD we are combat engineers, tradesmen the poeple that built your camp and get you power and water and build your toilets and of course soldiers because lets face it no one goes any where with out them no matter what .
I know that the ATO`s in afghan all they are trying to defeat out there is boredom and the wedge heads are out on the ground doing what they do . So to finish up we all do our bits and pieces thats our job and we need to work together hence they are called joint EOD groups and dont forget we have the joint service iedd course now so the wedge heads can do that to .
And besides who can respect a corp with a bath and laundry unit come on corp.
Nice to see the real thing here on YouTube and not have to rely on some idiot reporter only interested in selling a story to the news channels on TV. Great stuff . Well done and keep up the good work whether in or out of uniform. Much appreciated I assure you !
yes I was ur tour guide :p . . . and i saw the boys around teh COB and SLB a few times after that . . . which one are u again? Sorry, hard to tell who's who on here :)
lol yeah i remember which one u were . . . i even asked eddie for a pic to make sure it was the right person :) I'm doin okay, in kuwait at the moment . . . takin time of basra, may not be goin back woohoo but we'll see . . . and hey u can meet anyone online LOL!

I'ma send u a message and give u my email addy, drop me a line any time :)
we wouldnt need as many of these guys who risk their lives if we just bomb the f*ck out of the middle east.. who cares about civilians, its better to kill 1000 camel jockeys than have one american, british or canadian killed
That way of thinking is ignorant and the main reason why the Americans are such war mongers. No matter what color, race, or country you may be of, when a person is killed he or she is still someones father, mother, brother, child and so on...hurts just the same.
these guys are among the bravest i have ever had the privilage to meet.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COURAGE.

was in the news today "Bomb Disposal Soldier Decorated"...... 'decorated' is such a wrong word with regards to bomb disposal imo
ie: the nade exploded, the room got decorated
