Bomb disposal: the hunt for the next roadside bomb

What to know

Get up close to the world of bomb disposal experts On September 29th, Risskov Library will be visited by Senior Sergeant Michael T. from the Engineer Regiment in Skive. Michael has worked in the Army's EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) unit for 17 years - a specialized unit that defuses bombs, ammunition and other explosive devices. He has also been deployed twice to both Afghanistan and Iraq, and once to the Baltics. In the lecture, Michael shares his personal experiences from the broadcasts and talks about the work as a bomb disposal expert - from the unit's establishment and development to the tasks it solves in Denmark and internationally today. The audience gets a rare glimpse into a world few ever get close to. How does a bomb disposal expert work? What does it take to make decisions under extreme pressure? And what experiences stick with you when you have worked on some of the world's most dangerous tasks? - Date: 29 September 2026 - Time: 19:00–21:00 - Venue: Risskov Bibliotek - Address: Fortebakken 1, Risskov, Denmark - Admission: Free
