LUIS, ENGB

“As a state Firefighter from Puerto Rico with over 20 years of experience I have never seen anything like WDS… in only 2 years with the company I have experienced tremendous benefits, lots of opportunities to learn and always worked around awesome people.”

TANNER, FFT2

“This is both my first year in wildfire and with WDS. WDS has given me a great opportunity in a unique way to begin my first year in wildland. There is an added benefit of being able to take a step back from the immediate fire to really learn about its behavior but also the unique aspect of wildland-urban interface. The people I have met in WDS have gone out of their way to really make sure I learn the ropes as someone who is brand new. WDS has been a great step into wildfires.”
