FBI hosts blast investigation training at Eglin

Special Agent Kevin Miles, the FBI post blast school instructor, points out a booby trap at the edge of the road during the first day of the post-blast investigation scenario Sept. 28 on the Eglin Air Force Base range. The investigations were part of the FBI's large vehicle post blast school attended by state and local law enforcement agencies as well as Navy and Air Force explosive ordnance disposal technicians. Three vehicles were blown up to create the crime scenes that students would investigate. The week-long course was the second held on Eglin with 67 students representing 18 different U.S. agencies.
