Mr. Dinkel, Industrial Arts Department chairperson, fought fires in Northern Califor- nia for ll straight day, putting in 200 hours. He performed such duties as supporting the fire effort, flying water drops on hot spots, pulling fire fighters off the fire line that were overcome with smoke, and flying fighters in and out of the blazing sites. Not only did Mr. Dinkel do all of the above, but he also had to take care of 186 men in his company. We were the main maintanence station. We supplied meals for all of the men and a place for a little RSLR lrest and relaxationlf' forest blazes said Mr. Dinkel. According to Mr. Dinkel, he was amazed that the National Guard could handle such a big operation. l thought that we would step on our toes big time, but we didn't. We ran it perfectly, recalled Mr. Dinkel. One thing that pleased Mr. Dinkel was the fact that Principal Floyd Williams allowed him to take the time out and do his patriotic duty. lt's great to know that I had an employer who supported the effort, said Mr. Dinkel. Though fighting fires was an extreme challenge, that didn't bother Mr. Dinkel. According to him, it was a great chance to fly and break away from the normal. Angelica Bautista e3 ,A ,,., 5 I ..
