DE firefighters helping battle Idaho blazes
By Frank Gerace

Delaware firefighters are helping battle blazes in Idaho covering more than 32 thousand acres.

The Delaware Forest Service sent a 20-volunteer team August 6th to help fight 3 fires burning 15 miles southeast of Twin Falls.

The fires are only about 10 percent contained.

Residents in the area have been evacuated, and the fire is burning through pine and juniper forests, brush and grass, but no building have been lost so far.
