Hidden Danger UXB!

summary:

Welcome to one of the most dangerous jobs in the world – bomb disposal. In ages past the weapons left behind on the battlefield posed little danger once the fighting had ended, for without the hand to wield it a sword or spear is inert. But since the advent of explosives, the remains of a war are primed and deadly, and retain their explosive capacity for many, many years after the war has been consigned to the annals of history. Until such a time as weapons are banned globally, or war has been consigned to museums, then brave people are needed to clean the former battle fields of their deadly detritus – the unexploded bomb or UXB!
