“Firefighters have to be strong enough to use their own minds all the time and brave enough to be afraid. If you find yourself working with a crew that is not afraid of fire, find one that is. First-year crew members need to be told that rules get broken, that safety is not always first. They need to be told that their incident commander can get them killed without losing his or her job. It is an absolute fraud to tell them less.” — Ken Weaver, father of Devin Weaver who died at the Thirtymile Fire
