If that is what they are using the M113 for, then I agree. I've seen our
Forest Service's M548s outfitted for firefighting. Let me tell you...
the flames should just extinguish themselves and save the humiliation of
defeat at the hands of those bad boys :-) I don't know who did the
conversions (I think we have 8 state wide), but they did a heck of a job.
Very impressive.
