EOD School Training break down

[eodwannabe]

Hi, this is my first post in this forum. I've been trying to get all the information on EOD possible before submitting a package and was wondering what the actual training at Eglin is like. I'm not looking for specifics for OPSEC reasons, but what's the split between physical conditioning and school house time? I'm just trying to get an idea. Is it similar to BUD/s where I get the crap beat out of me everyday before going to learn the course material or how does it work? If this has been posted before, I apologize for the repeated question. Thanks to anyone who can help me.

Try these sites,
EOD School: https://www.npdc.navy.mil/ceneoddive/eods/
Dive School: https://www.npdc.navy.mil/ceneoddive/ndstc/

You will be tested physically as well as mentally. Don't compare it to BUD/S, it's apples and oranges.

Ill ask my step son if he has some time to give you the low down on EOD. He went about 2 years ago before getting hurt. He got all the way to SERE. The he hated the most was killing the rabbit. With me being a hunter I kept calling him a wussie for that :)

Send me a message with your email and Ill see if Jason can help you out
