Trivia - Earliest Concerted Civilian UXO Clearance Effort
UXO Trivia - History Category The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) established the Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP)several years ago to address a portion of the UXO problem (i.e., not all UXO is addressed under the MMRP for example operational ranges are ineligible). This month's UXO Trivia Question explores the details of the earliest concerted civilian program to address UXO.
Here's this month UXO Trivia Question (3 parts): 1) When was the earliest concerted civilian lead effort by the DoD to clear UXO areas used during WWII (e.g., bombing and gunnery ranges, training areas); 2) What types of individuals conducted the UXO clearance efforts; and 3) What USACE Districts managed / contracted the efforts?

Oh my gosh, how ever did those guys survive without their PPE!!! I hope the 52nd Group or 20th CBRNE doesn't see this, I can only imagine there would be a retroactive article 15 in the mail. Imagine that, there was a time when Team Leaders were actually able to exercise judgment over their own safety.
