We went to a USMC eod dump for some training (entertainment) and just as soon as we got off the bus at least half of the Marines started shoving small (dud) ordinance out of a small mountain of FANTASTIC stuff into their utilities; . The Range officer then calmly informed us that we were standing in front of a large pile of once fired still live dud ordnance that was too sensitive to be moved and was slated for destruction in place at a later date! That stuff came out of pockets so SLOW and was returned with SUCH CARE to that pile; that the Range officer could not contain himself any longer, and said "OK Gentlemen; lesson #1"; some colour came back to most faces but not MUCH!

I think that NO range officer would have allowed the first item to be a souvenir if it was "too sensitive to be moved".
It must have been low risk and a valuable lesson about the dangers of unexploded ordnance. A great story.
