A Front Row Seat For A Fire Retardant Air Drop In Colorado [Video]
In light of the massive wildfires that ravaged Colorado the team at U.S. Northern Command released a video of what is involved in those fire retardant air drops that we are always seeing on the news.
It’s pretty cool to watch everything that it takes for these airborne firefighters to properly place those huge streams of orange fire retardant.
