Marines with Combat Assault Company, 3rd Marine Regiment, use amphibious assault vehicles to tear up the mud in the salvage yard wetland aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii during the annual Mud Ops environmental training exercise, Feb. 19, 2014. The CAC Marines team up with the Environmental Compliance and Protection Department each year to conduct the two to three-day exercise and tear up the mud within the Nuupia Pond Wildlife Management Area and salvage yard wetland to help preserve the comfortable living conditions of the wildlife within the areas. The result of this exercise allows the endangered Hawaiian black-necked stilt to feed and lay nests as well as making water more absorbable in the mud. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
