Sierra Fire: Sierra Ave. Fontana, California

Wind driven brush fire. Sierra Ave. & I-15 caused by a semi truck fire. Alot of smoke, not much else....

One secluded home burned.

Three fires broke out within minutes of each other and all within 5 miles, 2 in Devore, which sent San Bernardino County based firefighters and CHP scrambling for a time, while to the West huge fires in Los Angeles County were also burning and destroying many homes.

In the video San Bernardino National Forest Firefighters from Station/Engine 31 mop up the structure that burned, after they extinguished the big rig fire.

kevin11291983 what department do you work for? You probably just started taking fire classes at the local J.C. Obviously you are not a Firefighter because a real Firefighter would never make a comment like that and you would know that anyone worth his/her salt would have or would still be getting real fire experience with a wildland agency. I have a college degree, yes did wildland, and I work for a very large well respected department filled with ex wildland firefighters.

wow @kevin11291983 a real fire fighter wouldnt post ignorant comments like that. and i know for a fact a city fire fighter dont do half the work a wildland fire fighter dose. just respond to car crashes and ride around looking cool rarely fighting fire. its the truth and the panic when u hit a wild land fire and cant hike up to fight it beacuse your to fat and out of shape to do the work. i respect A & B firefighters bro . show some daqm honor and get off your high horse.

I have a college Degree you fuck!!!

Wildland firefighters are fake ass firefighters. A real firefighter works in the city and is an E.M.T., NOT A GROUND POUNDER. Go to college and get a college degree.

WILDLAND FIREFIGHTERS ARE NOT REAL FIREFIGHTERS. THEY ARE UNEDUCATED LOSERS
