This is day one in
Jamestown. The Jamestown Volunteer Fire Department
was doing a slash pile burn, to encourage residents
to clear brush and trees from their homes (mitigation)
and for good equipment practice for the department.
Matt is the new fire chief this year. |

|
Matt dressed up in full bunker gear. Nomex
all around. |
I missed the big burn, but the coal pile
was still about 1000° F. |
