Скачать или смотреть We Are The Forest Service: FFEOs

In this video, we take a closer look at Forest Fire Equipment Operators (FFEOs) with the North Carolina Forest Service and compare their role to a football team’s offensive line. The steady, behind-the-scenes force that makes every play possible.

FFEOs operate and maintain heavy equipment, build control lines, support initial attack, and help create safer working conditions for wildland firefighters on the ground. Their work is often unseen, but it is essential to protecting communities and forests across North Carolina.

Through this video, we highlight the importance of teamwork in wildfire response and hear directly from FFEOs about what keeps them committed to this challenging and critical role.

Whether it’s wildfire suppression, emergency response, or protecting forest resources, FFEOs are the backbone of the mission.
