Fire hazard of Magnisium to fire fighters and first responders.

Early this morning i fought a fire that involved a vehicle. As all fire fighters know magnisium burns white and puts off fumes. Does any one have any material on the true hazards of magnisium burning. I was interested in holding a safty meeting at our station but i need information. Or just oppions on this matter. So dont be afraid to tell me what you think of this hazard.

I'm sure you know how water reacts with it. I believe Firehouse.com had something on this also.
