Throwback Thursday: Helicopter Firefighting

Remember when we had to call a helicopter to fight a fire? in April of 2017 Mahwah Firefighters were joined by our colleagues from Ramsey, Hillburn, and the NJ State Forest Fire Service while we battled a large fire at the Ramapo Reservation. Firefighters worked on the ground to contain the fire, eventually calling in the State Forest Fire Service who would bring specially trained Firefighters and equipment to fight this kind of fire. The video below shows some of this specialized equipment, in this case a helicopter.
