    Why are they being coy and calling whatever they found “devices” instead of using a meaningful word?

      de·vice

      noun

      a thing made or adapted for a particular purpose, especially a piece of mechanical or electronic equipment.

      Sounds like the correct word to me. You don’t just walk into the store and buy an IED.

      One of the law enforcement officials with knowledge of the markings said that all three devices were sent to the terrorist explosive device analytical center in Huntsville, Ala.
