I live close to where the Coal Gulch Fire is located. I want to give a shout out of thanks to all the helicopter and tanker pilots, firefighters and all the crew involved in getting that fire under control and put out.

You firefighters and crew rock, and you are all my heroes. I watched while you took water to the helicopter and the pilots flew some difficult maneuvers, and saw those who fought the fire.

It is one hard job, and I think you are all awesome!

Thanks again for saving Lightner Creek valley and the surrounding area.
