hey dude this is a great tribute. Im a member in the Lakes District. You have showed all aspects of what we do. Our local communities have no idea how lucky they are that they have such devoted and caring volunteers. without volunteers, our communities would never be safe. Great video mate, really enjoyed watchin it... keep up the good work!

Thank you.. I've collected more photos and a bit of video footage, but still need more. We had a pretty quiet fire season around here, so when I get more pics etcc. I'll do another one.. Yes there isn't many for us - the RFS.. A ton for the americans - all good though... but hardly any ACTUAL tributes to the RFS volunteers - thank you...  I enjoy doing them. Cheers xx

Awesome!

[Patrolden]

well done! Be careful though it doesn't turn into a self-adulation festival..... there are unfortunately people in the RFS who seek glory, adulation & hero worship.

@meakesey- You will enjoy it all mate, just remember no matter what your qualifications are, you will always be learning something new. I speak from experience.
