Air Force augmentee firefighters go to battle the Honda Fire with shovels.

Welcome to Take 18! We are so excited you're here to join us to talk about everything movies!

​In our 18th Episode, we will be having an in-depth conversation with the crew behind the local documentary,Firestorm '77. It is a harrowing story of a wind-driven wildfire on a California Air Force base in 1977 that transformed into a power struggle between military command and civilian firefighters resulting in the tragic loss of life and, for survivors, a lifetime of recurring trauma. The film will be playing at the upcoming SLOIFF in March. This is one episode you won't want to miss! You can watch the trailer below.
