Here is a short presentation with the Original 13 Situations That Shout "WATCH OUT". These posters were heavily used in the 1960's to the late 1980's to emphasize hazardous conditions that wildland firefighters can face on the fireline. After 1987, the "WATCH OUT" situations were changed and steadily these posters were forgotten.

Any wildland firefighter that served during the 60's, 70's, or 80's will remember these posters in their basic training and adorning the walls of their fire stations.

Thanks to Bill Gabbert at www.wildfiretoday.com for preserving this historic artwork. Bill has an excellent description of how the first formalized wildland firefighting training program was developed: http://wildfiretoday.com/2010/02/16/v...
