My cousin is retired and took a little open ended trip to visit. They kept calling him to work on the fire and after 2 days of constant phone calls he went back to help.

His wife also works the fires taking drinks, food and anything else they need.

Someone on another forum said they had tried to take snacks and drinks to one of the fire camps, but a FEMA official stopped them and said that there was a caterer bringing meals, and that the firefighters weren't allowed to stray from their proscribed diet.

A: Is that normal?

And B: What's the best way for a civilian to help?
