EOD stays mission ready
DYESS AIR FORCE BASE, Texas—Senior Airman Joseph Fairchild (back) pulls Master Sgt. Brandon Livingston, 7th Explosive Ordinance Disposal Unit, through water during a two-part training exercise March 22 at the Dyess Fitness Center pool here. The first part involved removing their flak vest while underwater, swimming 25 meters and rescuing each other from the water. The second part involved push-ups, putting together a pan disrupter and carrying it a quarter-mile, all while wearing an 85-pound bomb suit on the track outside of the fitness center. EOD conducts training everyday so their Airmen are prepared for challenges they may face. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Airman 1st Class Shannon Hall)
