EOD Operator | Explosive Ordnance Disposal (S7 E3)

May 20, 2026 · 22 min

Show notes

The battlefield is saturated with explosives—from factory‑made munitions and improvised bombs to drones delivering lethal payloads. At the same time, unexploded ordnance from past wars may still lie hidden beneath the ground. Neutralizing these threats is essential to keeping troops moving and civilians safe. This is where Explosive Ordnance Disposal Operators like Master Warrant Officer Marty Gratrix come in. He offers an inside look at a career spent defusing danger with no room for error.
