2019 wildfire season: out of state crews working in Alaska

I had heard that were many United States based crews located outside Alaska that are working in Alaska. I got curious and went looking and am sharing this information with you. The information below is only U.S. based crews and does not reflect crews from Canada that may be helping in Alaska. The information below on U.S. Crews working wildfires in Alaska is from the Alaska Interagency Coordination Center obtained from the  Situation Report for July 22, 2019 (updated daily). Out of State crews in red. Crews are usually 20 persons.
