The Soldiers of the 459th Engineer Company out of Bridgeport, West Virginia, sent large pieces of NTC airborne with C4, shaped charges, and cratering charges when they took advantage of an opportunity to practice basic familiarization and refresher training in demolition during Operation Sand Castle 2007.
The explosives included C-4, TNT, mine-clearing line charges (MICLIC), 40-pound cratering charges and large unexploded ordnance (UXO) and satchel charges.
These charges would create six boreholes, which would be used for the larger, more robust cratering charges (made of composition H6).
