    Gerald "Jerry" Simon (right), one of the last surviving bomb disposal technicians to be trained at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Md., displays a brass ball-peen hammer to a group of explosive ordnance disposal technicians, during a professional leadership development session, May 10, 2018, at the National Guard Training Center on Fort Carson, Colo. The hammer is part of Simon’s tool kit that he keeps with him in case his fellow EOD brethren should ever need him. Former 242nd Ordnance Battalion Command Sergeant Major, Command Sgt. Maj. Scott Weimer (left), organized Simon’s visit. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Lance Pounds, 71st Ordnance Group (EOD), Public Affairs)
