Description

As we come up on the one year anniversary of the Boyer's fire, we take a look back at one of the biggest fires in our district with two of the firefighters who were first on scene. Lieutenant Mike Tavalez and firefighter Mark Meredith re-live the fire that went from one extreme to the other very quickly. They fill us in on the lessons learned, share the images they will never forget, and remind us how dangerous their jobs really can be.
