Pendleton Marines launch RQ-20 Puma in support of Operation Buck Rogers - U.S. Marine Cpl. Michael Misbach, an intelligence specialist with 2nd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, launches an RQ-20 Puma unmanned aircraft system during Operation Buck Rogers on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, Dec. 3, 2019. Operation Buck Rogers is used to count the mule deer population on Camp Pendleton and the use of Pumas is a cheaper and more effective alternative to complete the task. The survey of Camp Pendleton’s deer population is done once a year. Misbach is a native of East Haven, Connecticut. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Alison Dostie)
