Helitack refers to "helicopter-delivered fire resources", and is the system of managing and using helicopters and their crews to perform aerial firefighting and other firefighting duties, primarily initial attack on wildfires. Helitack crews are used to attack a wildfire and gain early control of it, especially when inaccessibility would make it difficult or impossible for ground crews to respond in the same amount of time.The term helitack first appeared in a 1956 Los Angeles Times article, which described the "first of a series of tests—tabbed the Helitack Program—on the use of helicopters in firefighting will start next week in the San Bernardino National Forest". The word itself is a portmanteau of "helicopter" and "attack".Wildland firefighting agencies operate at the federal level (National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Indian Affairs), the state level (Dept. of Forestry, Dept. of Natural Resources), and at the local level where forest lands tie in with the incorporated area (Fire Science Online, n.d.). Although each agency has its own hiring processes, the following is a general guide to becoming a wildland firefighter. Forest firefighting is the prevention, control and suppression of fires in forests. It involves everything from fire education to budgeting for supplies, maintaining equipment, fighting fires, and assessing fire damage. A forest firefighter prevents, controls, and suppresses fires in federal, state, and private forests. They work in various capacities under a variety of job titles including forest fire warden, forest ranger, forest ranger technician, forestry technician (fire), wildland firefighter, and forest fire inspector and prevention specialist.Forest Firefighters usually work on a firefighting team or crew. They use water pumps, chemical pumps, or shovels to extinguish flames and embers and prevent fires. They maintain and test firefighting equipment, including parachutes, to make sure they're ready for the next emergency. When the time comes, firefighters are usually dropped into the affected area by air. After parachuting down, they retrieve dropped equipment and use a compass and map to stay oriented with their own position and that of the fire. In some cases, they rescue hikers and other people trapped in fire areas and provide emergency medical treatment. After a fire, they patrol for remaining hotspots with potential for reigniting large fires. They also plan and conduct fire prevention education programs.Forest Fire Inspectors and Prevention Specialists complement the work of forest firefighters. Their work is somewhat more administrative. They enforce fire regulations, go on inspection patrols to look for fire hazards, recommend forest fire prevention and control measures, and keep log books. While on patrol, they send radio or phone messages about emergencies and crew locations. During forest fires, they report on fire conditions, put out small fires with shovels and pumps, and may direct fire crews. They may need to locate forest fires on area maps using traditional methods, such as landmarks. In some cases, forest fire inspectors and prevention specialists must determine the cause of a fire and document the evidence that led them to that conclusion. They also maintain and keep track of firefighting equipment, and conduct fire education programs. .6665 They will make a great addition to your SSI Shoulder Sleeve Insignia collection.
