Yeah, if you're looking at (name withheld), man, you're going to head by 614, 526 and head up towards 317. Yeah, at the moment, we're good with the resources that we have. It's just where we meet with Yankee. We've got a little bit of activity, and that's where you're going to have to cover. Copy that. Alpha. Come in. 58, operations A3. The place of engine 12 there unaware. Time to get there and then they're using their water up pretty quick because it's still pretty active, but... Water Center 41 is... I'm good with the resources we have. (name withheld), just so you know, Watertender 43 went to get water, and as soon as they're full, they'll be heading out towards your location from the command post. And they're going to just drive as far as they feel comfortable, so hopefully they'll reach you on your tack and get a better location. Five minutes we're finished hopping off heading back now. Got it. Engine 29, other level 1, district, 41, 631, 24th Street, Engine 24th Street, Operation 82. It's going to be a minute before we get over there. We got some flop over where Alpha meets Mike. Copy that. Medics 68, Mediolate Co2, District 66, 11367, Sunrise Gold Circle, Medics 68, Operations A3. Are you guys still working that edge or are you going in for water? We kind of got hijacked back here with 660 but had quite a bit of fire behind you. We're getting water. There is a water tender south of our location, right? We're going to hang back here with these guys and work our way towards you. We're out of water. We're going to go fill it. Copy that. 8526, I got you. Take a look at that. Am I getting a wind shift? Give me some essay on it right now. Looks like it's still blowing to the north. All right, copy, thanks. And that's why that water supply. Water tender is not out there yet, so you're going to have to go all the way out. Copy things. We're out of water. Copy that. Hey, this new smoke production, is that on your plank or are we looking at a Division Yankee Reed Kendall? That's still my point. I have three units out there right now that are doing an attack. It's just slow going. Copy that. And you're engaged with the copter correct on your attack? Yeah, they just did a water drop. Man, Alpha, I know you said water tender will get out there. Let me know when they're headed. That way I can let all my units know because they're definitely needing water. Okay, I'm looking at contingency for the next trigger point. Are we going to be able to stop it on that wind row on the west of the field that it's currently in? when I'm looking at where your location is on Sabbath command. I've been rallying the troops on my attack, so I think they're going to be able to get this. They're just running out of water, you know, it's just a big footprint out there. That's affirmative. I just want to make sure we don't have to gain access into the field to the west. When you look at the map, there's a row of wind row or irrigation ditch. If we get fire into that field, we're going to have to have some other access issues. Yeah, there's actually an access point. If you look at my location where I drew the line up to, they can do a left and head down that row of trees. It was just spread that way, but this wind's keeping it at bay. Copy that. Click it in the next. Command, Division Mike. Go ahead. Yeah, come on, Division Mike. Yeah, come on, there's Division Mike. Yeah, we had somebody from the airport here report that west of that tree line and that field that it's all green cornfield. Copy that. Go ahead, Chief. Hey, but how's it looking out there? Because I'm way north just watching this from my vantage point. Are you guys, I see you got three units with you. I got two coming from the north. Are you guys going to be able to pick it up pretty soon from what you guys got out there? Do you have any concerns? Yeah, we had a pretty good win on it right now. If that water tender could get out here, it would help us exponentially. Yeah, copy, and I was going to have them go through that covert down where you guys have been gaining access from the south and get as close as they feel comfortable getting in that water center. Yeah, gee, there's a group of oak, probably 100 to 200 yards south of this west flank that's going, that they could stay in a safe spot. We could just shuttle back and forth. 10 or 43. We're just finishing a fill up right now. We'll see you guys shortly. Copy. Did you copy 660s traffic? Are you going to enter from the south, like near a command post? You're going to come up, follow a road through a covert. There's a row of oak trees. That's a safe spot for you guys to establish the water. Copy.
