Task Force 4809 has returned home! 🇺🇸🔥
After 14 days deployed to Nevada and California in support of CAL OES, our partners in Nevada, and the USDA Forest Service, the members of Task Force 4809 have safely returned home.
The task force was comprised of:
• 🚒 Type 3 Engine — Manteca Fire Department
• 🚒 Type 1 Engine — Winters Fire Department
• 🚒 Type 6 Engines — San Francisco Fire Department, Ione Fire Department, and Westport Fire Department
Our crews worked alongside local, state, and federal partners throughout the deployment, providing critical wildland fire resources and support.
Adding to the effort, the crews returned directly from the Bug, Stallion and most recently the MP18 Fire in Hoopa, California, where they had been supporting fire suppression operations.
We’re proud of the professionalism, dedication, and hard work displayed by every member of Task Force 4809. Welcome home, and thank you for representing your departments and communities! 🇺🇸👨🚒🔥
One team. One mission
