An equipment operator with Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield Forestry Branch, uses a bulldozer to push a dead hardwood tree, also referred to as a snag, away from a road in the base’s training area, Feb. 3, 2020. Snags can cause fires to jump across roads if they should fall near roadways. FS/HAAF Forestry Branch conducts prescribed burns, also known as controlled burns, to reduce the risk and intensity of potential wildfires, improve training areas and endangered species’ habitats.
