What has this to do with military aviation? (I don't think there are any
active bases near what's burning.) This is not unusual for Southern
California (or, indeed, Northern California) this time of year...

Perhaps their are surplas military aircraft out there dropping fire
retardent.
I can assure you there are
Such as OV-10, S-2A, S-2T, UH-1 (or Bell civilian model), P-2V, possibly DC-4
or 6 also, Skycrane helicopters, etc
