Meet the Team: Maj Bobby "Boomer" Bangh-Bangh joined the #RAFLuton bomb disposal team this week after completing 2 days of training with his Bomb Unarming Modified Stick. Seen here with a Paveway 8 semi-nuclear missile found by the Timeteam team, believed to date back to 1803!pic.twitter.com/VRoUq8zBt2

His training was run by a French secondee, Inspector Closer who when asked what kind of bomb it was, replied, "Well, the exploding kind"

I thought the unarming stick was a bit longer for the paveway 8? After all, you need to be at least 6 feet away for safety whilst unarming it.

Ah, the old semi-nukes. The stick was always tricky to master with these nasty devices! But our bomb techs would always either figure it out, or...they wouldn't.

Wonderful to see men using their BUMS to prevent explosions. Makes you proud to be British!

Glad to see he is using a wooden stick - don’t want anything metal in case of magnetic triggers!
