Commercial explosives have changed the face of the world and helped in tremendous progress, but for many responders, they still remain a source of confusion and misinformation. The ERG says to work “UNDER SUPERVISION OF A SPECIALIST.” Who is that? In this session, you’ll learn how to recognize commercial explosives. You’ll also learn commonsense actions to make a scene safer and when it’s truly time to “get out of Dodge.” Albert M.
