Sailors assigned to Amphibious Construction Battalion 2, dump oyster shells into the mud flats of Little Creek Cove to establish two new artificial oyster reefs. The oysters are the naturally occurring Eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, which can filter 50 gallons of water individually each day. (U.S. Navy photo by Seaman Scott Pittman)
