Sgt. Jorge Yepes, amphibious assault vehicle crew chief, Combat Assault Company, 3rd Marine Regiment, drives an AAV through the wetlands around the Nuupia Ponds Wildlife Management Area, during the 30th annual Mud Operations at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Feb. 28 through March 1. “When we started doing this as an annual routine, we weren’t doing it in some areas and the pickleweed was [waist] high,” said Diane Drigot, senior natural resource management specialist, Base Environmental. “When [the AAVs] began to plow through it, the birds [spread out] so they can nest and feed in a habitat that wasn’t used at all because of too many weeds.”
