Sgt. Maj. Masaki Ando, an explosive ordinance disposal sergeant, looks through the scope of a special application scoped rifle during the explosive ordnance disposal study tour of the Camp Foster EOD detachment. The annual study tour allows the Marine Corps EOD and Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force EOD to share their techniques and improve interoperability. “Marine Corps EOD is entirely self-contained,” said Chief Warrant Officer Timothy H. Buckles, the officer in charge of the EOD detachment on Camp Foster. “They contain every department that a Marine Corps installation does.” Ando is part of the 101st EOD Unit, 15th Brigade, Western Army, Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force.
