VICE News embeds with an elite crew of firefighters -- the Forest Service Hotshot crew out of Eldorado National Forest in California -- as they battle wildfires during one of the worst fire seasons on record, with short staffing in the middle of a pandemic. Think of them as the Navy SEALS of firefighters.
