🎉 Ribbon Cutting & Industry Showcase | Highlights On Thursday, we celebrated the official opening of Phases Two and Three of the USBTA Bomb Disposal Technology & Training Center—a major milestone for our organization and for the Indian Head community. Leaders from across the region joined us to share in the moment with the USBTA team and our CEO Sean Dennis, including Mayor Brandon Paulin, Captain Stephen Duba, Senator Arthur Ellis, Commissioner Thomasina Coates, Delegate Debra M. Davis - District 28, Charles County, and Pam Frank of the Charles County Military Alliance Council. Each speaker expressed how proud they were to see the progress of Phases Two and Three, highlighting how collaboration fuels innovation and impact—and how it truly takes a village to move this mission forward. A huge thank you to our industry partners for showcasing the latest in EOD technology, to the MAC for their ongoing support and for sponsoring this event, and to our incredible USBTA staff for making this event—and the entire week—possible. This event was the perfect way to wrap up 2025 EOD Week on the Hill, closing out a week full of connection, recognition, and momentum for the future of bomb technicians everywhere. Stay tuned—there’s more to come. (fb)
