We would like to to acknowledge the help of all the people who gave their time to this project, contributed technical publications, or gave permission to distribute some of their material. Without their support, this site would not have become a reality.
Rich Endress, who has contributed some PDF publications, 150+ patent applications related to ordnance, and a large collection of images.
Dave Hurtle (US Army EOD, retired) for donating his collection to me so I could put it up on this site. Stay tuned for more...
The International Association of Chiefs of Police were kind enough to allow us to post one of their older manuals, the Police Technical Series 03-2, Recognition of Explosive and Incendiary Devices.
Thanks to Darryl Lynn for making his three boobytrap books available. He also has four grenade manuals available for purchase.
Finally, a big thank you to Tom Gersbeck, author of "Practical Military Ordnance Identification, Second Edition" for providing material, motivation, and insight into some of the bomb disposal communities with which I have little experience. I bought his book and highly recommend it to those of you looking to learn the best way to identify unknown ordnance.
