Brig. Gen. Kevin J. Killea, Commanding General, Marine Corps Installations - West, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, and fire chiefs from departments aboard the installation and in the surrounding communities came together for a Pre-Fire Season Meeting at the Pacific Views Event Center, May 31, 2017. The goal of the meeting was to bring together members of the California Fire Assistance Agreement to discuss and plan for the upcoming fire season. Significant wildland fires throughout San Diego County in October of 2007 lead officials to seek a partnership between military and civilian aviation and firefighting assets to better manage crisis aboard regional military installations and in the surrounding communities. Since then, Camp Pendleton security and safety agencies, and local departments have been working together to streamline response and integrated communication efforts to provide ready, trained and certified military and civilian resources to combat wildland fires in the region, culminating with a cooperative effort to extinguish wildland fires.
