EOD Gear

Great meeting with NASA, the Primes, and my fellow Small Business owners in Huntsville at LAUNCHPAD 2027. Congratulations to the organizers on a great event. The Primes bring the scale. Small business brings the speed.

New episode of the EOD Gear IMPROVISED podcast just aired. If your injuries trace back to service but your VA rating feels like a bad joke — you're not alone. Listen and learn how to increase your VA rating: eod-gear.com/eod-podcast/

Two blast mitigation transport options. The larger one holds bigger items — rated for 1/2 lb TNT equivalent. The smaller one is tested to 1 lb TNT equivalent. Note the difference: rated versus tested. We tell you which is which. Which is more practical for you?

Starting out early at AUSA with our strategic partners at Slate Solutions — getting the latest updates on some of the best armor made in the USA. Day one in DC. The aisles are already working.

You're not behind. You were never taught. School gave you a diploma and left out the part that actually matters. I put that part in a book — including how @EODGear got built. Green Football — Amazon #1 Best Seller

Our most popular hook and line kit — the Micro HAL — in a rip-away pouch with a rip-away line bag for fast deployment. This set ships to bomb squads in Italy. Built in Franklin, Tennessee. Deployed worldwide. eod-gear.com/micro-hal-kit/

Any range day is a great day. Supporting the Tennessee Sheriffs Association this morning — Michael Strange from EOD Gear, up and at it early. Thank you, Williamson County Sheriff's Department, for letting us join you.

Monday I'll be at the AUSA Annual Meeting in Washington, DC. Looking forward to connecting with my fellow defense contractors and the customers we build for. The best meetings don't happen in the booths. They happen in the aisles.

Supporting IABTI with this donation. Always great to hang out with my fellow EOD Techs in Buffalo. This community trains the world's bomb techs — backing it is dues, not charity. Hoo-Yah Region V.

Showcasing the Bread Box today at IABTI Region V in Buffalo, New York. An easier way to transport — up to 1 lb N.E.W. Great to be around my fellow EOD Techs. Come by the booth and put your hands on it.

Holding a buffalo wing in Buffalo. Had to be done. I'm here for the IABTI Region V In-Service Training and I've already run into plenty of fellow EOD Techs. The wing's good. The company's better.

EOD Gear is exhibiting at the IABTI Region V In-Service Training, October 6–8 in Buffalo, New York. Steve lands Monday afternoon. Come find the booth — the conversations are the point. Train. Share. Stay ready. #EOD #BombSquad

EOD Gear is now a member of the SOF RACER Consortium — USSOCOM's Rapid Acquisition Consortium for Emerging Requirements. What it means for the SOF community: easier access, faster path, gear in hands sooner. The acquisition process shouldn't be the slowest part of the mission.

Un ringraziamento a tutte le squadre artificieri italiane presenti alla conferenza qui a Roma. Thank you for your dedication and the camaraderie. Different flags, same mission. #EOD #BombSquad

Spoke today at the EOD conference in Rome on New COTS — Custom Off The Shelf. Custom gear at off-the-shelf speed: rapid prototyping, rapid manufacturing, rapid delivery to the warfighter. The mission shouldn't bend to the catalog. The catalog should bend to the mission.

Two EOD techs adopted into the IABTI so far. We're sponsoring five more. EOD Gear covers your IABTI membership. U.S. and international bomb techs welcome. Apply here: eod-gear.com/adopt-a-tech/

A good friend and strategic partner sent me this — reading Green Football, my Amazon No. 1 bestseller, on his flight to Tampa. The chapter he's on says it all: Facts Tell, Story Sell. Get outside and make some stories worth telling. greenfootballbook.com

My best friend Frank, on a beach, reading Green Football. He's not just reading it — he's in it. We go back to 1983. Forty-three years of friendship, and he still checks my work. greenfootballbook.com

You don't buy a challenge coin. It gets handed to you. My good friend Billy Norris of the Nashville Fire Department handed me this one — a joint Nashville Metro Police and Nashville Fire Department coin. Two sides, two departments, one city.

Lisbon. Then Rome. There's a conference in between, up here in the Alps. Most people see this view and stop thinking. I find it's where the good thinking starts.
