STRIKE TEAM UPDATE 🚒🔥

Our crews continue to demonstrate that serving the community goes beyond the fireline.

Yesterday, OES 4117, assigned to Strike Team 4807A, spent the day mopping up on Division Juliet. While working around structures, the crew discovered several animals that had been left behind without food or water. They immediately went to work providing food, fresh water, and ensuring the animals were safe.

We’re proud of the dedication and compassion our firefighters show every day, not only protecting lives and property, but also caring for the animals that depend on us during these challenging times.
