Service members from Camp Eggers, ISAF, and the Afghan Ministry of Defense compete in “Camp Eggers Firefighter Combat Challenge”. The event is being held by the Camp Eggers Fire Brigade to boost morale and interest in their cause. Camp Eggers Fire Brigade is an all volunteer unit and they have seen significant interest since starting their bi-annually Firefighter Challenges. The Firefighter Challenge draws interest not only from actual firefighters and potential firefighters, but also individuals looking to challenge themselves in a obstacle course, simulating real situations a firefighter may face. The interviews include two U.S. Army Soldiers and two U.S. Navy Sailors. Includes sound bites from LTJG Gabriel Torres, Camp Eggers Fire Brigade Chief; Spc. Zach House, Camp Eggers Fire Captain; SCPO Franie Navarro, Firefighter Challenge Participant; Maj. Michael Mai, Firefighter Challenge Participant; Sgt. Eric Lessard, Firefighter Challenge Participant; Cpl. Oliver Pitre-Breton, Firefighter Challenge Participant. Also available in high definition.
