More than 40 employees from the Northeast Region are out west helping battle 14 wild fires currently blazing in 5 states, and our hearts go out to the friends and families of the three Forest Service firefighters who recently lost their lives fighting the Twisp Road Fire in Washington State.
During fires such as these, it is vital to get information to the dedicated individuals risking their lives and the residents. Berkshire Eagle recently profiled Service employee Catherine Hibbard, currently serving as lead information officer in the federal government's response to the Selway Complex fires in the Selway Wilderness region. http://bit.ly/1Kg2ZNc
