    A contracted commercial helicopter, piloted by Jeffrey Wallace, is used to drop small balls of incendiary substances to burn hardwood plants in the Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield training area, Feb. 4, 2020. FS/HAAF Forestry Branch uses aerial ignition due to the size and rough terrain of its training areas. FS 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.
