We've had many questions/incorrect assumptions that firefighters from Your LAFD are heading to Australia We are not the WILDLAND experts This group of colleagues from @Angeles_NF are among those experienced, wildland firefighters on their way to help Please return safely!

#LAFD is STRONGLY asking ALL bystanders to stay OUT of the #lariver as we continue our efforts both from the ground and the air to rescue the dog. By going in the water you are created another human rescue which puts all at risk...including yourself. Please. Stay. Out.

Today we remember #LAFD Captain Lane Kemper, who past away from job-related cancer 14 years ago. Lane was a pillar in our dept & in the community, whose legacy lives on. Each drill tower class still honors him during the forcible entry section of training #weremember #neverforget
