05:34
10-4[1]. Sevens in front of us.
05:37
We'll be right behind them.
05:42
All right, I don't think we're going to be able to get seven in here, so we're going to pull them up past you, so make sure when you pull up, you pull in front of Engine 9.
05:56
We need to extend this line.
06:04
I'm looking at whether or not, I think we're going to be okay.
06:10
We can't understand you.
06:12
Do you need the line extended? We need to do it now why it's not charged if you do.
06:24
It's negative.
06:25
I should be fine.
06:26
I got 75 feet right here at the door.
06:29
All right. Do you want us to go ahead and charge the line for you?
06:35
No, we're still trying to get up the ladder.
06:38
We gotta feed it through this door for the second floor.

We're trying to get up right now.
06:43
All right, copy.
06:46
Cap, what do you want engine three to do? Do you want them up there with you or do you want them to assist from the ground?
06:53
Next crew will bring another water can and a tick.
06:59
Alright, and they are coming inside the structure, correct?
07:04
That's correct. I believe I have them out with the water cap.
07:06
We're just going to have to check with it for extension.
