00:08.130 --> 00:10.074
this team of airmen are inspecting

00:10.074 --> 00:12.297
weapons discovered in a weapons cache .

00:12.297 --> 00:14.297
As members of an explosive ordnance

00:14.297 --> 00:16.463
disposal team . It's something they do

00:16.463 --> 00:18.550
nearly every day . This cash alone

00:18.550 --> 00:20.550
contains several types of weapons ,

00:20.550 --> 00:22.494
including ammunition , mortars and

00:22.494 --> 00:24.550
projectiles . While these airmen are

00:24.550 --> 00:26.550
responsible for the disposal , they

00:26.550 --> 00:28.717
could not find the caches without some

00:28.717 --> 00:30.883
help . Then the U . S . Army basically

00:30.883 --> 00:33.160
supports us and lets us know what's

00:33.160 --> 00:35.438
going on . So we rolled out with the U .

00:35.438 --> 00:37.327
S . Army and then we kind of work

00:37.327 --> 00:39.604
together with the Iraqi army and the U .

00:39.604 --> 00:43.490
S . Army um to basically find out where

00:43.490 --> 00:45.657
it's at , get it all together and then

00:45.657 --> 00:47.657
we get rid of it as far as the cash

00:47.657 --> 00:49.768
that's all stuff that they could have

00:49.768 --> 00:51.990
used for IEDs and us . Getting rid of .

00:51.990 --> 00:54.212
It basically means that they don't have

00:54.212 --> 00:56.434
the tools that they need to use against

00:56.434 --> 00:58.434
us . This team works with coalition

00:58.434 --> 01:00.601
forces not only in finding the cash is

01:00.601 --> 01:02.657
they also work together to transport

01:02.657 --> 01:04.879
the ordinance to disposal sites and get

01:04.879 --> 01:08.530
it ready for demolition . After all the

01:08.530 --> 01:10.641
preparation , it's time for the Odihr

01:10.641 --> 01:12.530
meant to destroy the cash using a

01:12.530 --> 01:14.752
controlled detonation . Otherwise we'll

01:14.752 --> 01:16.808
just find a field somewhere and that

01:16.808 --> 01:18.919
somewhere that's away from you know ,

01:18.919 --> 01:21.030
buildings and structures , people and

01:21.030 --> 01:23.030
all that and we can just blow it in

01:23.030 --> 01:24.640
place there . Yeah

01:28.040 --> 01:29.762
each weapons cache these areas

01:29.762 --> 01:31.818
destroyed , takes dangerous weaponry

01:31.818 --> 01:33.762
out of the hands of terrorists and

01:33.762 --> 01:35.818
makes the citizens of Iraq safer Air
