The 152nd Airlift Wing, Nevada Air National Guard, became the newest Department of Defense military unit to use the U.S. Forest Service's Modular Airborne Firefighting System last year. After getting certified with other aircrew in 2016, Nevada Air National Guard aircrew first activated with their own planes for the firefighting mission this weekend on the Detwiler Fire in central California.
