We've dropped nearly 450k gallons of retardant on the #LAFires. Fire retardant does not put out the fire, but decreases the intensity of the flames to help all of the ground crews. We're proud to serve all of the #firefighters putting in such long, hard hours! 📸: @GregDoyle50

Charlie Bednar captured this video of #Ten_Tanker following our #leadplane to drop containment lines on the #EatonFire. To share some good news, this neighborhood’s evacuation was lifted thanks to the hardworking operation of all. Thank you @combat_learjet for the video help!
