Explosive ordnance disposal technicians with Marine Forces Special Operations Command and Air Force Special Operations Command conduct an EOD pre-deployment evaluation primer exercise alongside critical skills operators June 16-25, 2022. The primer tests all aspects of a technician’s knowledge and expertise needed to integrate with a special operations team while operating as the sole EOD tech in austere, politically sensitive, or hostile environments. EOD technicians assigned to MARSOC have completed Marine Special Operations Forces Explosive Ordnance Disposal Level 1, which trains Fleet Marine Force EOD technicians in the knowledge and skills required to support the core tasks assigned to MARSOC as a special operations capability specialist.
