Yep. I can attest to this one. They were up in the pacific northwest fighting fires. And a lot of them train here(I live in Idaho) at the National InterAgency Fire Center(NIFC). Its one of the most renowned firefighting schools in the world(as regards forest/wildfire types of fires). I kind of wish that there were some of those fella here in NY and DC right now. I got to meet some truly awesome guys when I was involved with them(I was working at a local National Guard base, and they trained with the guard. I was a cook and fed them lunch every day).
