(86,900 posts)I used to live near a smokejumper base, when the fires down here get rolling, many firefighters from Canada come to help. I used to see quite a number of Canadian firefighting aircraft and, when the fire camp was near town, sometime meet them in town.

(11,527 posts)I live in Oregon and when we had a bunch of fires they came from all over to help. I am so glad it works that way.
That's how life is suppose to be full of loving, caring people.
