Retired wildland firefighter, I got in a lot of trouble after my videos were posted by my family. It is nice for people that have no idea what we do to see it. Thanks.

No amount of praise or money would ever be enough for these guys. Incredible. True heroes
-
More people need to post videos like this so the people in the big cities can see what is all actually going on out side of there city keep up the hard work and thanks for saving lives and homes

You guys are the Tip of The Spear. Cutting in those fire breaks and depriving the fire of fuel. I'm willing to bet that you guys don't get paid nearly enough to get that close to the fire lines. Many of us appreciate what you do.

I was an operator for 14 years in pine plantation country Tennessee. Grundy merrion warren CO's . You fellows fight fire very similar to the way we did. We usually didn't have as much equipment on site unless it was a very large fire but same idea. We should all think God that there people in this world that are willing do this dangerous work at all much less for what it pays! Thank you for what you do for your fellow man!!!

I live in Hilliard in this area. Thank you for what you do! The power of that machine is amazing to me.

Thank you for making these videos, I've told my wife about fires I've been on but until she watched this video with me she had never seen it. Keep up the awesome work, and maybe one day some of us other guys running the toy dozers will make some videos.

Being from Southern California I haven't seen a fire dozer set up like yours I noticed even with an open cab you don't have curtains out here it's required Great video stay safe

Dozers - the mechanized armor of the wildfire war. Such a good feeling when they show up.

In Sth Australia we use skidders and dozers . I'm a skidder driver and a CFS country fire service volunteer. It's a privilege to operate machines at this level of firefighting. We usually toe a large A frame plow behind or very heavy disc plows. The A frame provides a near smooth road for fire trucks to travel down to fight the now contained fire. All videos like this one provide insight and training to like operation around the world. Just one tip could save lives thankyou

Brother I did 3 seasons with cal fire. Two times my crew and I were in a situation where Dozer guys popped up out of nowhere for us! When VLAT’s and choppers said they had to protect homes down below. Y’all have saved our lives. I’ve single handledly watched them charge the fire , disappear. Come back and then leave to another assignment. You guys are unsung hero’s and from a hand line sawyer to a a dozer. I love you guys & I was so glad to do the jobs you guys couldn’t safely navigate to. Keep charging !
