As we celebrate 50 years of women in EOD, join us for an enlightening conversation with Dr. April Cobos, author of The Women of Explosive Ordnance Disposal:  Cyborg Techno-Bodies, Situated Knowledge, and Vibrant Materiality in Military Cultures. 

April's talks about her recently released book which addresses the disparities between policy discourse and the lived experiences of women in the Explosive Ordnance Disposal community who these policies seek to regulate through a rhetorical framework what it's like to be a woman in the EOD career field, and she shares her experiences as an EOD spouse and how resiliency is not a one size fits all, and how communication and grace got her family through tough times, and her husband being away for 12 combat deployments.
