Los Angeles City Fire Chief Bill Wicks (L) and Deputy Chief Emile Mack (R) present the scorched American flag rescued by fire fighters to Oakridge manager Ginny Harmon (C) at the Oakridge mobile home community following a wildfire fueled by strong winds in the Sylmar area of Los Angeles November 16, 2008. Fires raged for the fourth day around Southern California on Sunday but firefighters hoped lighter winds would help them combat blazes that have destroyed more than 800 houses, from mobile homes to multimillion-dollar mansions, and forced some 50,000 people to flee the flames.
