I see a ton of houses on fire, so the “they’re not familiar with wild land firefighting” isn’t going to cut it.

Why does this article upset you so much? I don’t recall (I just checked) mentioning politics. You did. That was your immediate go to as some sort of unhinged defense mechanism.

What I find weird with this is that it's only the NY Post that has said anything about this, no one else
 
So with over 100 engine companies in LA City and another 200 in LACounty FD. If FDNY we sends 50 members out there couldn’t they be assigned one FDNY member per company of engines still covering the city and not involved in wildfire operations so as to free up 50 LA firefighters to partake in wildfire operations or get some much needed rehab.

And im saying in general that although we may not have such extensive knowledge on brush fires as those in Cali, we definitely have a good amount, especially following the few hundred we had last year in just a month. On top of which, NYTF1 (I believe) did alot of management for some of the large brush fires here in the North east.
