MADISON COUNTY, Va. - A Virginia National Guard Soldier assists the Virginia Department of Forestry with mop-up operations Nov. 16, 2023, at the Quaker Run Fire in Madison County, Virginia. VNG troops patrolled previously burned areas looking for hotspots and used blowers to clear newly-fallen leaves to help prevent reburn and maintain fire containment. VNG support helps with the overall containment effort of the Quaker Run Fire and allows DOF to reposition resources to other fires in the state.
