Unexploded ordnance from at least as far back as the American Civil War still poses a hazard worldwide, both in current and former combat areas and on military firing ranges. A major problem with unexploded ordnance is that over the years the detonator and main charge deteriorate, frequently making them more sensitive to disturbance, and therefore more dangerous to handle. There are countless examples of people tampering with unexploded ordnance that is many years old – often with fatal results. Believing it to be harmless they handle the device and it explodes, killing or severely injuring them. For this reason it is universally recommended that unexploded ordnance should not be touched or handled by unqualified persons. Instead, the location should be reported to the local police so that bomb disposal or Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) professionals can render it safe.
Learn what to do if you find UXO and how to handle the situation safely.

Unexploded bombs leave a deadly legacy in Vietnam
The war never quite ends in Vietnam — all across the country, thousands of unexploded bombs and grenades are still buried in the ground.
At least 38,000 people have been killed by leftover explosives since the Vietnam War ended in 1975.
Worldfocus special correspondent Mark Litke and producer Ara Ayer venture into the fields of Quang Tri to explore a deadly legacy of war.

Well I met the man who killed my mother He put holes inside her arms No they were not marks of stigmata lord Just a drug pumping empty heart Well I met the man who took my father Put him in jail and locked him away Well they say he forgot his children lord He might remember us again someday I blame the devil Well I met the man who killed my grandmother He took her mind as the shotgun blew A year later my grandfather followed her He’d had enough and shot himself too Well I met the man who took my good friend Oh, but he was only seventeen I saw him laying in a cushioned coffin lord It wasn’t him staring back at me I blame the devil, what else could it be I blame Jesus he ain't answering me Don’t call me depressed, don’t call me sad I’m giving up on this life I had Well I met the man who raped my childhood Oh well we were never young it’s true But when everyone around you keeps dying lord What the hell are we supposed to do Well I met the man who took my sister In a new family she will stay And it’s true that my mother’s a sinner lord She let another family fade away I blame the devil, what else could it be I blame Jesus he ain't answering me Don’t call me depressed, don’t call me sad
