^- Hi, I'm Staff Sergeant Michael Davenport.

00:20.664 --> 00:23.675
^I'm a loadmaster with the US Air Force's Reserves,

00:23.675 --> 00:26.305
^302nd Airlift Wings in Colorado Springs.

00:26.305 --> 00:28.428
^I've been doing this mission for two years now.

00:28.428 --> 00:32.595
^And MAFFS is an extremely important mission to me because

00:32.974 --> 00:35.265
nobody wants these fires to happen,

00:35.265 --> 00:37.648
but if they're going to happen,

00:37.648 --> 00:40.023
I want to be out there to help with the effort,

00:40.023 --> 00:41.648
and the guys on the ground to be able

00:41.648 --> 00:44.318
to put these fires out, so they don't take out

00:44.318 --> 00:48.485
anybody's livelihood, no family possessions, pets,

00:49.400 --> 00:51.157
or God forbid, a human life.

00:51.157 --> 00:53.074
I want to be there to stop these fires.

00:53.074 --> 00:55.991
