I've lived here in Tehachapi for 25 years now and there have been two fires within a 1/2 mile of my home, both during the heat of the summer. I have seen the Tehachapi Firefighters trek up and down the mountain behind my house working at saving the homes in our area. They have parked their rigs in the cul-de-sac I live on and were determined not to allow the fires to reach our homes. They stayed overnight up on the mountain being sure hot spots didn't flare up again. They work within the community at many different chores, showing the proper maintenance for fire prevention, teaching children fire safety, working accidents, and the list goes on. I do not begrudge them their salaries. If by their positions being so sought after it means we get the cream of the crop, I'm not going to complain.
