Texas Wildfires

Back from Venezuela, we were asked to help the Texas Forest Service Wildfire Dept. with wildfire rehab. They needed a group who could respond rapidly to the states wide spread wildfires. Working with the Salvation Army, we traveled the roads for over 3 weeks taking supplies to the backlines and supply depot. With only 5 volunteers and 3 trucks, we helped keep those volunteer firemen with rehab so they could keep fighting the fires. Many we found dehydrated to the point of fainting. Those guys are incredible!!

As a result of all of the agencies combined efforts, firemen stayed on the lines longer without having to stop, resulting in smaller fires and less danger to the public.
