Dear UXOInfo.com Readers,
Happiest of Holidays to all of our readers and their families. Thank you for your support throughout 2018. We are looking forward to sharing the latest news from the UXO world with all of you in the coming year. In this season of giving, please remember to support the EOD Warrior Foundation and their upcoming Polar Bear Plunge. Details on ways to participate or make a donation can be found in the article below.
This month we have three UXO-related stories from Capitol Hill, the creation of a new Congressional UXO / Demining Caucus which will focus on international demining, news of an Army National Guard investigation into the training and equipping of the 430th EOD Company following the death of EOD Specialist James Slape in October, and an Army memorandum encouraging alternatives be sought for open burning disposal.
Please continue to contact us with your own stories as your contributions and feedback makes our newsletter better for all our readers. To share your own story, contact Rhonda Crowley at rhonda@uxoinfo.com for details on how to submit an article.
