On Camp Pendleton and other military installations, like Camp Beale, near me, those wide swaths are to create an open space where any possible infiltrator is more easily detected. Some years ago, Camp Pendleton made the swaths 2 and 3 times wider due to the larger and larger numbers of illegal aliens. They find evidence of them overnighting all over the base. Talk to any marine who trains there. Beale widened their swaths about 6 years ago.
