Bomb Technicians Face Higher Risk in Iraq, Syria: Commander

This is nothing new, from the beginning in all these conflicts with IED's the most dangerous Jobs have been EOD and Route Clarence (Engineers) Engineers also had to place all the T-walls, and check points and other task outside wire like keeping MSR's up and Bridges cleared this was done by both groups.This is why I always hate the old Infantry, and SOF does everything, NO they do not, and they need Force Multipliers as in Combat Support unit's like these.The one good thing the commanders are doing is using their (Iraqi) US trained Engineers but need our EOD Techs, and that sucks.

the cowardly bastards are using Command detonated and Booby trapped IED to make sure they tale out as many allied and specialty personnel as possible...
