A friends daughter has been with USFS for a very long time. I think she currently is crew on a helo who drops smoke jumpers. I think she was a jumper for many years.
If your interested I might be able to contact her so your son might be able to converse with someone with experience. This gal is the real deal, she hiked the entire pacific crest trail about 5 years ago.
PM with your email.

I saw several tanker helicopters flying over my house returning from the Telegraph fire.

The 17 year Brood X cicadas are upon us. The sheer volume of thousands of them all calling at once is deafening! Cool, red-eyed lil buggers! There are literally millions in our area all flying around wildly and hanging on everything.
The first pic is from their larvae burrowing out of the ground. The second is their shells as they molt into adults.
When I lived in NJ, we had them. Noisy phukkers that serve no purpose. My labs would play with them, walking around with the little buzzers in their mouths.
