Staff Sgt. Evan Dieckhoff, 49th Civil Engineer Squadron Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician, holds a plastic mock artillery projectile to a student during Operation Kids Investigating Deployment at Holloman Air Force Base, N.M., Feb. 3, 2017. Operation KID is an annual event allowing children of military members to acquire a better understanding of what their parents go through prior to a deployment. Military children were given a walk around the Basic Expeditionary Airfield Resources compound to see a mock deployment site, have a mission brief, paint their faces, try on Mission Oriented Protective Posture gear, and learn about different equipment including the opportunity to see a robot demonstration from Holloman’s EOD unit.
