He then notified CSHD who sent out EOD Team 3 to assess the danger. Finding a HEAT device they warned folks within a 250 meter radius and they

Out in the field, next to a ubiquitous termite mound, was the stump of an old tree. While the tree had fed the termites for a long period of time, the explosives were not something they could digest.
Thus, when they were found, the police were notified. Then CSHD got the request and sent out EOD Team 2.
They then BLEW THEM UP!!

In a section of a rice field, after it had been planted, harvested, and the leftover stalks burned, a local citizen found a leftover rocket. They then reported it to the local police who reported it to CSHD. EOD Team 2 was on duty and went out to remove the danger.
As this was a High Explosive Anti Tank explosive, they had to warn folks within a 250 meter radius of its location before they could
BLOW IT UP!!

A local citizen rests in the shade created by a huge, old tree which has stood next to this field for over 40 years. As he looks around he notices a weathered, old mortar which he knows is totally out of place!
As he wanders through the edges of the field he notices even more.
He then marks them as he was taught in his MRE course and contacts the local police. They contact CSHD which sends out EOD Team 2.
Knowing they are dangerous, they gather them together
and they BLOW THEM UP!!

Once again, a sharp eyed local citizen noticed an ordnance, camouflaged on the jungle floor.
Fortunately, rather than trying to do anything with it herself, she marked the area as she had been taught in a Mine Risk Education course. Then she alerted the local authorities. They contacted CSHD and EOD Team 3 went to check it out.
As the ordnance was of the HEAT category it was

A farmer is out looking over his land. He checks out some rocks he sees at the base of a tree NEAR the area he just cleared. He looks closer at the rocks as he remembers what he learned at a Mine Risk Education course.
He realizes that one of the rocks has a metallic portion.
As he continues to look under another tree he makes another discovery! This one is even more sinister.
He then notifies the local police.
The police notify CSHD and EOD Team 2 responded.
They put the two pieces he discovered.
And THEY BLEW THEM UP!!
