Smokey the Bear celebrates his 69th birthday today (Aug 8, 2013)!!
Born in 1944, Smokey the Bear is the longest running PSA campaign in US history!
The first campaign catch-phrase was "Smokey Says - Care Will Prevent 9 of out 10 Forest Fires."
In 1947 this changed to "Remember ... Only YOU Can Prevent Forest Fires."
In 2001 this shifted to "Only YOU Can Prevent Forest Fires."
Here's a look at Smokey the Bear through the years...
