I was a CIED instructor for about 5 years. I was most surprised by what the majority of people DIDN'T know. Kind of an epic fail across the board for training

We were instrumental in teaching (and arming) a fledgling rebel group that later became Al Qaeda how to make them better so that they could defeat the Soviets. In the 80's I was an instructor and in the 2004 I went to help undo what I did.

Didn't find the link to be helpful at all. I will say, though, that in Iraq I was surprised to find out how easily blasts scrambled random electronics
