Have I made any mistakes?

During the digging for a new block of flats, a large unexploded bomb from the Second World War was found a couple of meters under the surface. The work had to be immediately suspended and buildings and shops evacuated for a whole day until the bomb disposal crew arrived from the capital and took the bomb away.

I think they disable such devices before they move them. (I could be wrong.)

You have to have nerves of steel to be on the bomb disposal unit.
