Brief History of the Incident Command System

The concept that the fire service knows today as the incident command system was developed in response to the 1970 wildfire season, which devastated Southern California. Following the implementation of the ICS to combat wildfires, the fire service quickly adopted the idea and applied the concepts to structural firefighting. Today, the concept of ICS has been integrated into the National Incident Management System. This video provides a brief history of how the idea of a centralized incident command grew from a tactic of wildfire management into the all-hazard, multi-agency system now known as NIMS. The video is an excerpt from a Vigilant Fire Service Training presentation on incident command.
