Armored
Threat and Threatened Armor
The
desert is a harsh environment, testing warriors and their armor; yet when
the U.S. Marines fire and maneuver, they often find an armored friend
- the threatened Desert Tortoise - already holding the high ground. The
Marines, with the help of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are working
to protect endangered species while maintaining military preparedness.
One result: at Twentynine Palms, both armored threat and threatened armor
are ready for the future. That's what happens when some of your best friends
are Marines.
