A V8T Dozer drags a chain across a firebreak to flatten its surface as another dozer clears brush from the path, aboard Camp Pendleton, Calif., May 13, 2014. Facilities Maintenance Division and seven Marines with 7th Engineer Support Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group, began creating firebreaks May 6, 2014 in an effort to contain wildfires that may start on base and will continue to create them through Aug. 10, 2014. The FMD employees and 7th ESB Marines are still slated to meet this completion date even with the fire that destroyed 6,000 acres and caused hundreds of service members and their families to evacuate their on-base homes, May 14, 2014.
