On October 17, 2020, FLIR TradeForce participant, Christopher (Chris) Keefer put his thermography training that he had undertaken during his time in the US Armed Services into unforeseen use. When a massive house fire broke out four doors down from his residence, Chris knew that the impact could be devastating.

While battling gushing winds of over speeds of 20 miles per hour (mph), firefighters began to attack the fire at the house, while Christopher stood by anxiously watching the hot embers blow across the street.
