Mudslingers
by Tim Sheehy
Senator Sheehy mentions that he wrote a book about the history of aerial firefighting called 'Mudslingers,' with all profits going to benefit fallen wildland firefighters. He references this while explaining the history of how the government decided in the 1960s to contract out firefighting aircraft rather than operate them directly.
