PF&R Members Deployed for Wildfire Mission
Portland Fire members have returned from a wildfire deployment with the Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office where they worked in various positions on the incident management team. Their mission was to protect structures from the wildfire while the Oregon Department of Forestry concentrated on containing the wildfire itself. The OSFM IMT is comprised of members from all over the state and are dispatched to incidents of any kind requiring assistance should a local jurisdiction request it.
