What is the WSI Iraq Fire Protection Program?
WSI Fire and Emergency Service in Iraq is the primary emergency response capability for 20 United States Department of Defense (DOD) sites.

Simply put, we protect those who are protecting the citizens of Iraq.

The Fire Protection program is an opportunity to advance your career and join an elite group who have taken the next steps in protecting members of our Armed Services.
Life in Iraq is challenging and is not for all firefighters; however, for those who have what it takes to operate in a combat region, it can be one of the most personal and professionally rewarding experiences in a lifetime.
