Wildfire Academy
Firefighters participating in the Wildfire Academy, hosted by the 721st Civil Engineer fire department, dig a fire line or “stop line” at Fort Carson during a training exercise. Stop lines are fire control measures designed to cut off a wildfire before it spreads. Approximately 100 enlisted and civilian fire fighters from Peterson, Cheyenne Mountain and other local federal, state and local agencies took part in the week-long training academy which culminated with a 100 acre live fire exercise conducted at Fort Carson and was designed to promote first responder teamwork.
