    A fireball and shockwave cone shoot into the sky

    A fireball and shockwave cone shoot into the sky in Taji north of Baghdad. The white mist cloud was created when two shockwaves of simultaneously exploding bombs met. Explosive ordnance disposal technicians detonated the last seven, one thousand pound bombs in Taji, Dec. 16. 3rd Brigade, 1st Armored Division was tasked with management of the Taji Ammo Dump, known as Area Echo, and diligently worked with contractors and explosive ordnance disposal teams to clear the compound of all munitions. Nearly twenty-thousand tons of munitions were destroyed in Area Echo and the removal these munitions was a significant task that added to the safety of Coalition Forces and the Iraqi people.
