Montana Sends Guard to Battle Washington Wildfires | Spokane News
Description
Montana’s deploying a five-member National Guard team—including a heavy-lift CH-47 Chinook helicopter—to aid Washington’s wildfire crisis, where over 10,000 acres have burned and homes lost. Backed by the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, this massive cross-state effort draws support from more than 20 states. Brigadier General Trent Gibson says it’s “just what Montanans do,” while Governor Gianforte assures locals that Montana’s domestic firefighting capacity remains secure despite the out-of-state deployment.
