There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Dang, those photos bring back memories of fire fighting for my summer job when I was in college after VN. A good fire season and the attendant overtime made for some pretty good pay. I ended up a Helitack forman with the Bureau of Land Management my last year. My team used the Bell Jet Ranger for our aerial insertions and exfiltrations although at one point we had a Bell Huey (212). We could tripple our load over the Jet Ranger with the Huey and used it for the big fires and the Jet Ranger for the spot fires from lighting strikes or orther causes. The Huey could also double as a water drop helo when no firefighters were on board it.
Looks like the uniforms haven't changed much in all these years. Can't argue with success I guess. Looks like a couple of those firefighters are wearing Whites' (out of Spokane, WA) "Smokejumper" boots. That was my favorite boot for backcountry firefighting in Utah and Western Colorado.
