UXO XO'd

Here's my umpteenth attempt to upload a video. Went to You Tube so we'll see if this works . . . .



Found this video from back in 2005. This occurred at what we called Motel 6 - some of our dorms in Iraq. The incoming mortar did not explode on impact - God was on our side thankfully. No one was hit or hurt when they lobbed it in. The EOD - Explosive Ordinance Demolition guys - did a great job of safely detonating this and used plenty of explosives to do it. It did break a window and blow open a few steel doors. You can see some of our guys in physical training gear with their steel pots and flak vests on and you can hear them commenting on the event ---- too funny!
