Wildfires in the United States burn millions of acres each year. Several emergency situations have occurred in Washington, state, local, military, civilian, contract, international firefighters, and support staff respond to many different emergency situations. The backbone of the wildland fire community is made by these amazing individuals. The men and women who work to save lives, property, and valuable natural and cultural resources every year deserve a great deal for their professional skills and efforts.
Wildland first services are highly prepared, and emergency responders are highly prepared. They are an important part of a coordinated effort across departments to respond to wildland fires and other natural disasters. They consist of crews on the ground, air support, smokejumpers, and incident response teams.
