6. MISSION
The job of Navy EOD is to detect, recover, identify, evaluate, render safe and dispose of Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) that constitutes a threat to people, material, installations, ships, aircraft and operations. As the only naval force trained for such an expansive mission, Navy EOD technicians must deal with all types of explosive ordnance as well as weapon delivery systems containing explosives and propellants.

7. MEANS
Use of ships and submersibles play a key role in the detection and destruction of sea mines.
EOD not only looks for unexploded ordinance that may pose a threat, but also disposes of unused, aging ordinance in the fleet that poses a threat due to its instability.
