Inmates Complete Wildfire Training

(Forest Grove, OR) -- More than 60 Oregon Department of Corrections adults in custody have been trained to fight wildfires this summer. They learned how to dig handlines, lay hoseline and run a water pump, how to use firefighting tools and procedures to mop up after a fire. They'll join another 60 inmates who were already trained. They work out of the South Fork Forest Camp which has been in operation for 74 years.
