A C-130 Hercules from the 302nd Airlift Wing, Colorado Springs, Colo., gets a fresh charge of Phos-Chek fire retardant. This view shows the spouts of the Modular Airlift Fire Fighting System (MAFFS). The Phos-Chek is being used on the Manter Fire in the Sequoia National Forest, Calif. The 302nd is deployed to a forward operating location at Channel Island Air National Guard Station. The wing is one of four military organizations that responds to the Department of Agriculture and U.S.Forest Service call for support to supress large natural or wild fires.  (USAF Air Force Photo by Tech.
