What was the name of the 1973 report of the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control?

• A. America Burning (1973)
• B. America Burning Revisited (1986)
• C. Fire in the United States (2001)
• D. Fire Protection in America (1978)

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is knowing the exact title of the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control’s 1973 report. That landmark publication is called America Burning. It presented a national strategy to prevent fires, reduce deaths and injuries, and strengthen fire protection across the country, calling for coordinated action by federal, state, and local authorities, stronger codes, public and firefighter education, better data and research, and increased fire-service resources. The other titles are later reports or different works, not the 1973 document.
