roywoodjrLos Angeles Fire Fighters not assigned to help with the wildfires, must now cover twice the area, on half the rest as they play keep up with the city’s regular volume of 911 calls that continue to come in. Engine 16 in Compton “The Fire Factory” is one of THE busiest in Los Angeles County. I tagged along with them, for what was supposed to be ONE call but it ended up being a couple of hours as we bounced all over Compton. We talked about the job, the one place they would never want to be a firefighter, and how the drug epidemic plays a role in their exhaustive workload. CalFireFoundation.org which provides assistance to the families of fallen firefighters, injured firefighters, as well as any and all victims of wildfires. Support Engine 16 at LAFireStore.com proceeds go to help youth programs in South Central Los Angeles. #Wildfires #Firefighters #losAngeles #Fire
