Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) technicians from three regional armed forces took part in a very important multinational training exercise known as TRI-CRAB 2000, 2 - 11 May. The TRI-CRAB exercise code name is based upon "tri" for the three participating countries and "crab" which is the nickname for the EOD badge. The exercise focused on common EOD procedures between the armed forces of Australia, Singapore and the U.S.
