IED Search Teams honoured with new badge
A new Search badge has been created to pay tribute to the brave Service personnel of the High Assurance Search Teams who search for and isolate improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Afghanistan.
Known for their work with the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and Search Task Force (formerly known as the Counter-Improvised Explosive Device Task Force), the Search Teams and their advisors from the Royal Engineers and the Royal Logistic Corps have one of the most dangerous and demanding jobs in Afghanistan.
The Search Teams are out on the ground in Helmand province every day of the year searching for IEDs in the most dangerous areas, which are then removed or destroyed by the EOD operators.
