Episode 25 - The IED Game

On this week's episode, we sit down with a legend of the Explosive Ordinance Disposal community, Master Sergeant Russ Ho. MSG Ho served as an EOD Technician on multiple deployments, ultimately serving as the team leader for a three man EOD team at COP Sperwan Ghar in Panwjai in 2012. Russ talks to us about his experiences in the horn, as well as the months leading up to his move to Sperwan Ghar, where he and his team fought to stay one step ahead of the Taliban fighters emplacing IEDs along Highway 1. Russ talks about the challenges of the EOD field, the benefits, and how he somehow prefers digging IEDs out of the ground. Weird. You won't want to miss this interview!
