Intermediate Wildfire Academy in Anchorage: Strengthening Partnerships and Equipping Cadets for Career Advancement The 2024 Intermediate Wildfire Academy currently underway in Chugiak marks a multiyear and significant collaboration between Alaska's Division of Forestry & Fire Protection, the Kansas Forest Service and two of Colorado's Emergency Response Agencies. This year's academy also emphasizes the importance of diversity as twenty eight cadets from across Alaska bring a wealth of backgrounds and experiences to the table. The involvement of individuals from remote Alaskan villages like Kwethluk, Kalskag, Hooper Bay, Good News Bay, Chevak, Hughes, Huslia, and Allakaket is particularly noteworthy, highlighting the necessity of providing training opportunities to rural Alaskans. Cadets from rural areas receive comprehensive assistance, including full support for their air transportation and logistical needs to attend the Academy.

VIDEO: Fire destroys RVs at dealership in Southern California A fire destroyed more than a dozen RVs overnight Thursday at Mike Thompson's RV Super Store in Santa Fe Springs. Authorities responded to a possible burglary call at about 12:30 a.m. at the gated property on Firestone Boulevard in southeastern Los Angeles County near the 5 Freeway. Several RVs were in flames when firefighters arrived. Details about a cause of the fire were not immediately available. The property has several security cameras that investigators plan to check for video. No injuries were reported. Firefighters prevented the fire from spreading beyond the dealership. A manager told NBCLA that the damage estimate is about $2 million. The family-owned and operated company started in 1972 and became a Southern California fixture with four locations in the LA, Orange County, Riverside and San Bernardino areas.

WSB-TV ABC 2 ATLANTA House passes New Jersey Representatives-led bill supporting Fire Grants and Safety Act On an overwhelming bipartisan 393-13 vote, the House passed a bill today sponsored by New Jersey Reps. Tom Kean Jr. (R-Westfield) and Bill Pascrell (D-Paterson) that re-ups a number of key firefighter grant programs. The bill, the Fire Grants and Safety Act, reauthorizes the U.S. Fire Administration, the Assistance to Firefighter Grants (AFG), and the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) Grant; it also increases funding for the Fire Administration. "As a former volunteer firefighter, I know the hardship and sacrifices that firefighters make daily to quickly respond to emergencies," Kean said in remarks on the House floor. "This bipartisan and bicameral piece of legislation demonstrates our firm commitment to the safety and the well-being of our firefighters, empowering them to overcome challenges and fulfill their mission of safeguarding our communities." NEW JERSEY GLOBE Augmented reality helping Illinois fire department practice fire safety VIDEO/PHOTOS: Moline Fire Department has a new way to simulate a fire in any room and practice putting it out. The department purchased the FiAR training system, a device that uses augmented reality to test the user on operating a fire extinguisher properly. The device is a touch screen and mock fire extinguisher, which can place items like a grill, wooden pallets or a car into an environment and simulate different types of fires. "Flammable metals, oils, fats, it lets us practice putting all those types of fires out with those different extinguishers," Moline fire inspector Kevin Sorby said. FiAR grades the user on whether the right fire extinguisher was used, and the proper technique applied. "There's a saying, it's PASS — pull, aim, squeeze, sweep," Sorby explained.
