Back in my early twenties I was in the military and got called out to fight fires a few times, hard work and seeing the power of fire, so in a way I cam glad this fire was rather unimpressive and not to much damage

Bet that was a lot of (not) fun. What'd they have you doing, cutting out firebreaks and the like? I grew up in a rural, heavily wooded area and my dad was a volunteer firefighter, so we did a lot of controlled burns growing up. Along with a lot of playing with fire generally... Seen the aftermath of enough 'proper' fires to be quite glad it was nothing of the sort.
In your time in the states, have you encountered kudzu? Once watched a forest fire burn off a hillside covered in kudzu and a month or two later it was already covered again.
NO I havent come across Kudzu
Yes a lot of it was cutting firebreaks, and it was hard work but we had a good group and made it fun as well
