Dana Hessheimer, then-commander of the 163d Reconnaissance Wing, California Air National Guard, Aug. 27, 2013, at March Air Reserve Base, California, during a joint effort to combat the Rim Fire, which grew to become one of the most devastating fires in California's history. The Rim Fire marked the first time a remotely piloted aircraft was used in support of state agencies during wildland firefighting operations. By the end of July, 2018, the wing (now known as the 163d Attack Wing) had flown support missions on over 20 wildfires since the Rim Fire. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Neil S.
