AB The  current  Incident  Command  System  developed  out  of  difficulties  faced  by  firefighters  four  decades  ago.  During  the  1970s,  a  series  of  forest  fires  ravaged  southern  California  threatening  populated  areas.  Despite  adequate  resources  and  personnel,  many  people  were  injured  or  killed  and  significant  property  damage  was  sustained.1,2  Out  of  tragedy  came  the  defined  need  for  a  better,  more  systematic  approach.
