Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) in Viet Nam 1966-1967
For larger pieces of ordnance, especially for those dropped or fired from aircraft, fuses and main charges (the bomb, missile warhead, etc.) are normally stored separately until they were hung from their hard points or loaded into the gun, dispenser, or bomb bay.
We finally got word that the VC had placed and detonated an explosive charge in a storage stack of nearly 12,000 eight-inch, high-explosive artillery projectiles at the thousand-acre U.S. Army ammunition depot at Long Binh, about 25 miles away, and that was the explosion we had heard.

 USATODAY.com - Soldier describes removing al-Qaqaa arms   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
Whether Saddam Hussein's forces removed the explosives before U.S. forces arrived on April 3, 2003, or whether they fell into the hands of looters and insurgents afterward — because the site was not guarded by U.S. troops — has become a key issue in the campaign.
The window in which the explosives were most likely removed from Al-Qaqaa begins on March 15, 2003 — five days before the war started — and ends in late May, when a U.S. weapons inspection team declared the depot stripped and looted.
The explosives were known to be housed in storage bunkers at the sprawling Al-Qaqaa complex and nearby structures.
