Steam combats fire primarily through the application of water in the form of steam. When water is heated to create steam, it expands and can carry heat away from the fire, lowering the temperature and reducing the flames. Additionally, steam can displace oxygen in the vicinity of the fire, which is essential for combustion, thereby suffocating the flames. This method is often employed in fire suppression systems and can be effective in controlling fire in various environments.

Does the US military use fire trucks in combat?

Depends on what you mean my "combat". The USAF stations fire support vehicles at every base. These vehicles are in combat zones, but no one is riding them down the streets of Baghdad. Fire support vehicles are considered non-combat vehicles. But like everything else, people can shoot at them.
