180710-M-WM087-0023 CHERRY POINT, N.C. (July 10, 2018) Personnel assigned to the Navy Boat Docks at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., attach a chain to a new hurricane buoy near the air station, July 10, 2018. The air station replaced hurricane buoys in preparation for the current hurricane season. The buoys are used during severe weather to secure naval vessels in open water to prevent the boats from being damaged during a storm. Afterward, the undamaged boats can be used to conduct recovery operations on and near the air station. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Andrew King/Released)
