About the Association of MCEOD
Marine EOD
Our Mission - Promote camaraderie and esprit de corps across the Marine Corps EOD community; forging the bond between retired, active duty, and formerly serving Marine Corps EOD personnel.
Our Story - The Association of MCEOD was founded in 2024 by a group of Marine Corps EOD Technicians who wanted to create a space where Techs could come together and enjoy their shared interests. We're proud of what we've accomplished so far and excited for what's to come!

meaning of the badge
THE WREATH is symbolic of the achievements and laurels gained by minimizing accident potential, through the ingenuity and devotion to duty of its members. It is in memory of the EOD personnel who have given their lives while performing EOD duties.
THE BOMB was copied from the design of the WWII Bomb Disposal Badge; the bomb represents the historic and major objective of the EOD attack, the unexploded bomb. The 3 fins represent the major areas of nuclear, conventional, and chemical/biological warfare.
THE LIGHTNING BOLTS symbolize the potential destructive power of the bomb and the courage and professionalism of EOD personnel in their endeavors to reduce hazards as well as to render explosive ordnance harmless.
THE SHIELD represents the EOD mission, which is to protect personnel and property in the immediate area from an inadvertent detonation of hazardous ordnance.
