Forest when you dont have a fire that make it easier and more effective in fighting the fire . Its an excellent question, sir. We spend a large time in cal fire on Public Education and prevention and also with respect to you were talking about fuel, the fuels program, or Vegetation Management program in cal fire, we have a Robust Program throughout the state where we are conducting burning operations and Vegetation Management with prieflt ranch owners and private land owners as well as on state and cooperating with our federal agencies with the u. S. Forest service. So twofold program, Vegetation Management, we aggressively pursue that, but also from a Public Education stand point.

We try to educate them in respect that we say well provide the offense, you provide the defense. We talk to them about hardening their structures in a defensive measure
Build upon and leverage what were doing here. Communications, that was one of the first things. Its different with our active duty forces because you see here, we send our aircraft all around the world. We cant necessarily just invest in some components in the aircraft and call it good because those assets may be gone and deployed but we have work arounds for that. We are looking forward to that as well in addition to the training. Lastly is we again kind of relish the opportunity to participate in the operations against an active enemy. At least here, its fire. We appreciate the fact we can go ahead and enter a Tactical Command air control. Those are operations that are familiar to us and they are, its a great exercise for us tactically as well. We are able to integrate with cal fire itself with the objective being the fire itself. Those work out for us here and we can go ahead and use those skills forward as well. Thank you very much, we appreciate the opportunity. Thank you, id like
