Cpl. Rigoberto Felix, a member of the Special Response Team on Marine Crops Logistics Base Barstow, Calif., found a desert tortoise crossing the road near the base's rifle range, May 13. Felix contacted Stephanie White, natural resources specialist on the base who responded and documented the location, size, height, weight, and special markings for later identification. Given their camouflaged appearance, many mistake the tortoise for a rock in the desert terrain. The tortoise is nicknamed Rigoberta, after Felix. No training exercises were actually interrupted during this sighting.

Kenneth Lyon, firefighter paramedic with Fire and Emergency Services, administers the first dose of Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to base personnel at Production Plant Barstow, Marine Depot Maintenance Command on the Yermo Annex aboard Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow, California, March 3. The Moderna version of the vaccine requires two doses, 28 days apart. The first dose offers over 60 percent immunity and introduces the immune system to the outer shell of the virus and typically has little to no side effects other than a sore arm. The second dose is a heavier priming of the immune system as the immune system recognizes the outer shell of the virus faster and provides a robust response and over 90 percent immunity. Some recipients report exhaustion, fever and body aches for a couple of days after the second dose, which is normal.
