Bullet Point Bugs
editSome browsers render the bullet point list in the history section strangely at certain zoom levels. Seems to be related to how they are next to an image on the left side of the screen, which seems to mess up the indentation. I've noticed these problems in both Oprah and Firefox browsers. Perhaps this is a general Wikimedia bug that should be addressed in the proper channels. However, I think this article should be adjusted in the meantime, but I don't want to remove any of the images because they fit the article very well despite the bugs. Perhaps the left image in the history section can be moved to the right? I don't see enough room so I'm unsure of how to act. Lockethot (talk) 14:51, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Gloves
editHowcome all of the pictured bomb technicians have bare hands? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.186.125 (talk) 00:17, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- I believe it has to do with manual dexterity. On a related note, why does the article mention interchangeable glove attachments which also prevent cross contamination from fingerprints, when every photo example of a modern bomb suit shows the wearer with bare hands?
