THE EOD OPERATOR *S POCKET BOOK
INTRODUCTION
THIS POCKET BOOK HAS BEEN PRODUCED
SOLELY FOR THE EXPLOSIVE ORDNANCE
DISPOSAL (EOD) OPERATOR IN KUWAIT. IT
HAS BEEN WRITTEN TO FILL THE OPERATOR *S
NEED FOR EASY ACCESS TO INFORMATION FOR
RECOGNITION AND DISPOSAL. THIS
INFORMATION IS THE BEST AVAILABLE TO UK
"MILITARY EOD AT TIME OF PRINTING. THE
DISPOSAL PROCEDURES ARE ADVISORY; THE
GOLDEN RULE SHOULD BE:
"IF IN DOUBT, DESTROY IN PLACE"
THE HANDBOOK IS DESIGNED IN THREE
SECTIONS:
BOMBLETS
MINES
LAND SERVICE AMMUNITION
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF IRON BOMBS IT
THEREFORE COVERS THE SPECTRUM OF
MUNITIONS IN KUWAIT, BUT DOES NOT CLAIM
TO BE COMPREHENSIVE. IT IS DESIGNED SO
THAT ADDITIONS MAY BE INSERTED. WHERE
THE INFORMATION ON A MUNITION IS
INCOMPLETE, OR WHERE A PARTICULAR
MUNITION HAS BEEN LEFT OUT, OPERATORS
OF ALL NATIONS ARE ASKED TO PASS
PHOTOGRAPHS AND NOTES TO UK EOD WHO
WILL PUBLISH UPDATES. BLANK FORMS FOR
RECORDING AND REPORTING NEW ITEMS ARE
INCLUDED AT THE BACK OF THE POCKET
BOOK.
5
FINALLY, THE POCKET BOOK IS PUBLISHED
IN BOTH ENGLISH AND ARABIC, WITH
POSSIBLY A FRENCH VERSION IN FUTURE, TO
ENABLE MAXIMUM USAGE THROUGHOUT KUWAIT.
YOU ARE REQUESTED TO USE IT WISELY.
TECHNICAL NOTES
UNEXPLODED ORDNANCE IN KUWAIT IS
SUBJECTED TO VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES IN
OR OUT OF SUNLIGHT. THIS INEVITABLY
CAUSES DETERIORATION OF EXPLOSIVES.
THE FOLLOWING POINTS SHOULD BE NOTED:
- EXUDATION IS COMMON, OFTEN AROUND
THREADED JOINS, AND PARTICULARLY WHEN
THE ROUND IS CONFINED. FOR EXAMPLE A
MORTAR ROUND WITHIN ITS PACKING CASE.
- EXUDED EXPLOSIVES WILL CRYSTALLISE
AND BECOME VERY SENSITIVE TO
FRICTION. ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD FUZES
BE UNSCREWED.
- PROPELLANT IS PARTICULARLY
SENSITIVE TO FRICTION IN THESE
CONDITIONS.
THE STATE OF CERTAIN SOVIET,CHINESE AND
LOCAL LAND SERVICE AMMUNITION IS NOT
EASILY IDENTIFIED. IF IN DOUBT, ASSUME
THE ROUND IS ARMED AND TREAT AS A
BLIND. ALSO, NOTE THAT WHITE
PHOSPHOROUS ROUNDS ARE NOT ALWAYS
MARKED AS SUCH. DEMOLITION OF WHITE
PHOSPHOROUS ROUNDS REQUIRES MORE
EXPLOSIVE THAN USUAL IN ORDER TO ENSURE
COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF THE FILL.

BOMBLETS
M42, M46 AND M77 GRENADES (BOMBLET)
DESCRIPTION: ALL GRENADES ARE SIMILAR
IN DESIGN AND ALL HAVE THE FOLLOWING IN
COMMON:
A. FUZE M223 IS FITTED TO THE BODY
OF THE GRENADE AND SECURED BY STEEL
RIVETS.
B. EACH GRENADE CONTAINS 30 .5G OF
EXPLOSIVE A5, WHICH IS SLIGHTLY MORE
SENSITIVE THAN TNT.
C. THE ONLY EXTERNAL DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN M77 AND M42/46 GRENADES IS THAT
THE M77 HAS A POLYURETHANE SHEATH
FITTED OVER THE RIBBON STABILIZER.
