"Bay State aids Calif. in fighting wildfires; Specially trained team is deployed" by Milton J. Valencia, Globe Staff | July 26, 2008
A team of 20 state and local firefighters is being sent to California for two weeks to help battle the wildfires that have torn through 700,000 acres in the northern part of the state in the last month.
The firefighters, from Springfield to South Dartmouth, have been trained in the firefighting techniques needed to attack the type of wildfires that continue to ravage the region since they began last month.
Firefighters have been able to control most of the fires in Northern California, but 24 continue to rage. The Massachusetts team will be replacing crews that have been battling the fires, which could burn throughout the summer, said Ron DeHart, information officer with the National Interagency Fire Center."
Then why is the MSM ignoring them and putting up crap for national news?
