Hats off to you guys! I'm a civilian, and I've only been face-to-face with a grass-fire once. It was in dry, tall grass. Flames must've been ten or twenty or thirty feet high at the time. Three of us were trying to at least keep the fire away from my dad's railer with rakes and blankets and buckets, but we were losing. Some local firefighters showed up in a truck just like this one and had the thing contained in what felt like fifteen minutes. Saved our bacon.

Brush fires are the worst. They can relight multiple times, the wind carries that fire fast and far and it can be highly unpredictable. These guys are doing their best. The only thing I would say is they rushed a little the first time up the fire line. You have to soak ahead of the flaming front to stop it from gaining fresh fuel.

Great job. I know it's dangerous, but that looks like a fun assignment. Has anyone tried to use one of those water trucks that are used on construction sites, that have the big spray nozzles on the front and back? I wonder if you could just drive around the perimeter with the fan spray on. That would be cool if you could.
