FILE - In this Aug. 22, 2015, file photo, volunteers learn to deploy fire shelters with practice equipment after a call out by fire officials seeking to supplement their usual resources in Omak, Wash. Wildland firefighters will have to wait at least an extra year before getting better fire shelters than the ones that failed to save the Arizona 19 firefighters. The U.S. Forest Service's expedited attempt following those deaths to have an upgraded shelter later this year is being pushed back a year after nearly 100 prototypes couldn't outperform the current shelter developed in 2002.
