Who conducts annual explosive safety training?

• A. EOD, and a munitions specialist.
• B. Base Weather Office and Fire Department.
• C. Security team.
• D. AFMES.

Answer: (A)

Explosive safety training requires specialized knowledge of munitions hazards, handling, storage, transport, and emergency response. EOD personnel are trained to identify ordnance, assess risk, and implement safe procedures, while a munitions specialist brings in-depth expertise on the weapons and components used on base. They jointly deliver and oversee annual training to ensure all personnel understand exclusion zones, PPE, proper handling practices, reporting procedures, and steps to take if a potential explosive threat is encountered. Other groups like the Weather Office or Fire Department perform important duties, but they aren’t the primary providers of comprehensive explosive safety instruction, and security teams or AFMES aren’t typically responsible for conducting this training.
