I've been aware of smokejumpers basically all my life. One of the signs of spring where I grew up was when Johnson Flying Service broke out the Ford Tri-motor and flew over all the schools. It was the best plane to jump out of because it could fly so slow and carry heavy loads.

President Eisenhower dedicated the Smoke Jumper Center. It was the first and only city-wide traffic jam I ever experienced there.
