1JPAU at Work. Video by SGT Chris Dickson in Bougainville. An Australian Army Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Team has destroyed a major cache of unfired World War II munitions in the jungles of Torokina, Bougainville during Operation RENDER SAFE 14. The location where the ordnance was discovered was a former Australian defensive position and was littered with high explosive mortar rounds and hand grenades. The Explosive Remnants of war, which were in varying states of decay, were blown in place after being rigged with plastique explosive. Operation RENDER SAFE is an ongoing Australian Defence Force commitment to the people of the South West Pacific and this year is being conducted with assistance from EOD teams from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and the Solomon Islands.
