Maine Forest Service Chopper in Action [VIDEO]
Downeast Maine Fire Departments were all, or virtually all in action Saturday afternoon, August 1st, either fighting fires or on standby as wildfires in Hancock County kept everyone busy. The largest fire was in Sullivan. Check out this video of a Maine Forest Service Chopper coming into a quarry to fill the bucket to fight the fire from above.
