Pacific Missile Range Facility Petty Officers Aaron Cuzick, Shawn Beauchamp and Jerry Pickryl carry a disoriented green sea turtle back to the outfall of Nohili Ditch Sunday afternoon. The turtle recovered quickly once back in shallow water and swam away. In the background, hauling out for a rest at the outfall is ‘Ding,’ a female turtle rescued a year ago at PMRF following a serious boat strike injury. A patch of fiberglass is still visible from the repair veterinarians performed in May.
