Название: Bomb Squads Автор: S. F. Tomajczyk and Stephen F. Tomajczyk Издательство: Motorbooks International Год: 1999 Формат: PDF Размер: 17 Мб Язык: английский / English
This book takes you into the amazing and deadly world of the hazardous devices technician (civilian) and the explosive ordnance disposal technician (military). It is a world where a single mistake or error in judgement can immediately cost you your life. I spent more than a year visiting bomb squads around the country learning how they train, what equipment they use, and what emerging hazards they face. The result is the most up-to-date and comprehensive book ever written on bomb disposal.
Flip through the book's pages and you will visit the FBI's elite "bomb school" in Alabama, where all bomb techs in America are trained. You will also learn how the US Navy uses dolphins and sea lions to find and retrieve enemy mines in the ocean. Additionally, you will be privvy to the "inside" stories of what really happened at the Oklahoma City, Centennial Park and World Trade Center bombings - from the bomb techs and forensic scientists who were there, on the scene at ground zero. The book also takes a blunt and realistic look at the threat posed by nuclear, biological and chemical terrorism.
The conclusions drawn will make your hair stand on end. By the time you finally put the book down, you will better understad why these brave men and women walk towards a bomb when everyone else is running away...and you will respect them for it. Bomb Squads is illustrated with 100 b/w and color photographs, the majority of which have never before been published!
