A T-34C, single-engine Naval Turbo Mentor trainer plane did a belly landing in the same area, near the mud bridge over Oso Creek on Jan. 12. The Navy also has not released a report on the cause of that incident. The Navy uses Waldron Field as a practice field.

If it's the area I'm thinking of the mud flats are used to practice emergency landings known as High and Low Altitude Power Losses.
I went through Primary at Whiting Field in Florida, but I my friends who went through Corpus talked about it.
