The TM62-P3 AT landmine is a majority plastic which makes detection more difficult then high metallic mines. Minefield operations obviously comes with a certain level of risk, and these plastic mines add another layer of danger mine action teams face in Ukraine. #Ukraine

The OZM-72 is my humbled opinion is the most dangerous antipersonal mine in Ukraine. Oftentimes tripwire activated, this bounding mine is extremely lethal for humans and animals. Finding and disposing of them is necessary as the reality is civilians, will find them the hard way Landmineremoval.org

September 12th, 2010 is the day I stepped on an IED in Afghanistan that nearly took my life. 15 years later, on my 11 mission to Ukraine, im using that experience and pain I went through to help others.

As im driving east to Kharkiv, I realized I made another successful trip around the sun. It's crazy how fast time goes by. Life is short, so live it to the fullest and help as many people as you can while you are here. Try to leave this world a better place than when you came in. Landmineremoval.org

Landmines are indiscriminate killers. They do not care about race, religion, gender or your POLITICS. Landmines will continue to injure and kill long after the last shot of this war is fired. September's mission is coming fast so see Landmineremoval.org for your way to support and make a difference.

Im still feeling blessed that our first annual Tip of the Spear gala was such a huge success. This wasn't for us, but for mine-action in Ukraine.

What do landmines in Ukraine have to do with me? I've been asked this question a lot. It's about humanity. It's about the oppression landmines bring, living in constant fear, a prison in your own home. Checkout the video and let's make a difference

Had an incredible 24 hours in Atlanta! It was an honor to speak at three events, sharing our mission in Ukraine. With everything happening in the world today, it's very easy to forget about the suffering in Ukraine. I will do my best to ensure Ukraine is not forgotten. landmineremoval.org #Ukraine

The Mine Action community was shocked to learn that two Prevail deminers, Nick and Chris were killed, and another teammate wounded while conducting demining operations. The team at Tip of the Spear Landmine Removal is praying for the families and loved ones as they deal with this tragic loss.

We had an amazing day taking (Ret) Senator Tom Brewer and his team showing him all the great things Tip of the Spear is doing in Kharkiv. Senator Brewer presented us a coin from the Governor of Nebraska with a message to "keep up the good work." Please see Landmineremoval.org for your way to help.

Amazing to see my Ukrainian brother after almost 3 years. Last time I saw Ivan was when we were in Posad-Pokrovske, Kherson Oblast in Nov 2022, two days after the Russians retreat. We were working together blowing up cluster mines. We may not be blood, but we are brothers
