This product is used solely to kill weeds on pretty much every US-owned base because the bases have very high upkeep standards and this particular weed killer was approved by the GSA for purchase. So when any base orders "weed killer", this is what they get.
The purpose is to maintain visibility at all entry gates, along runways, along fence lines, and so on.

Yep. There is more to the need of keeping growth in check than just neat appearance. Keeping fences clear of obscuring growth is essential for security, keeping runways and navigational instruments clear are essential for safety, etc.
