The 177th Fighter Wing Explosive Ordnance Disposal unit held their annual clearance operation at Detachment 1, Warren Grove Range May 29 to June 1, 2012. The 177th EOD airmen, along with their counterparts from the 166th Airlift Wing, Delaware Air National Guard and the 87th Civil Engineer Squadron at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, N.J., retrieved all the ordnance that was dropped at the Range during the past year. On June 1, a render safe procedure or a controlled detonation was done to make the more than 12 tons of BDU-33 twenty-five pound and BDU-50 five-hundred pound practice bombs safe for later reclamation. Warren Grove Range is operated by the 177th Fighter Wing, New Jersey Air National Guard and provides a quality training environment for all military and ground combat forces.
