Government calls in Army to aid Western firefighting effort
Boise AP Government fire managers say 650 Army soldiers from Fort Riley Kansas will be sent to eastern Oregon next week to join 17 000 firefighting personnel amid dozens of wildfires across the drought struck West. The move marks the third straight year the military has assisted in wildfire suppression. Strong heat and low humidity push fire activity with about 3.5 million acres burned this year—well above the 10 year average. Governor Jo Kitzhaber has already mobilized 500 Oregon National Guard troops to assist.
