Command from 804. I checked on all the derby crews. They're good. I got reassigned to a fire attack line with (name withheld) on the west side of the structure. Understood. Are you also there? No, you're on the west side. Are you also there with Engine 38 and Quinn 34? The only crew I have with me is (name withheld). Engine 38 from command. We got this overhead open up. We got heat, no visible flames. So out of the building are you working on? Alpha, Bravo Corner. And for it, thanks. (Name withheld) from command. We're with (name withheld). We're on the Alphabet off the corner with (name withheld). Good for, thank you. Truck 7 for safety. Truck 7 for safety. If you can get water on that far south, outbuilding, on the alpha side, go ahead and throw some water. Copy, I'm on the alpha side. The Italian 2 from truck 7, are we okay to put the truck back in service? Yeah, 104, having folks on that far, on the far west side, that alpha, alpha delta corner. We got everything put out underneath it. Copy. Truck 7, (name withheld), you 104 on that? To confirm, we want to hit that outbuilding. Yep. Engine 19 driver of truck 7, go and put the water back, truck 7. Battalion 2 from (name withheld) 34. We can't get much access with that handline on that outbuilding on that alpha delta corner. Got a wall in our way and a bunch of fences, so... Ten-four. We've been hitting it with one handline over here. We're going to hit the tower with it one more time here and see if we can't darken it down and then we'll hit it with the hand some more. Yeah, I copy that. I think we're left with spot fires now. We may be able to just blow the truck for a while. Command's cool, is it. Yeah, ten-four. The issue is the metal roof all came down on top of all this stuff and it's burning underneath it, so digging it out is going to be tough. Truck 7 from Engine 19, here comes your water. Whoever's on the handline on fire attack, be prepared for a pressure spike. Truck 7 is from (name withheld). Go Quint 34. Hey, we're trying to open up this Alpha Delta corner, so when you guys started blowing, be careful. We're making progress right now. Copy. If you guys can flow, that's fine. Just be aware we're right on the Alpha Delta corner. Hold it right there, (name withheld). Hold it right there. You're on it. Let's soak it. We'll hold it. We'll hold. 7. Swing left just a little bit. Truck 7, how's your pressure? I'm at 225 right now. We're good up here, thank you. Hold that right there on truck. Hold that line right there. Engine 36 water. We have to shut your line down with control pressures. Command, what is the best access to deliver the water? Yeah, they're going to need water on the east side of this and on the west side of this off Buckner and Water Strait. It looks like we're rebounding a lot of water off that thin roof. Are we good to come down a little bit? Yeah, something for us. Go straight to the Tarley side if you can. What's that looking? It's looking better. We just got a lot of metal roof on here, so we're kind of keep filling it up, soaking, and steaming it out. The Italian, too, from (name withheld). Thank you. Let's run all these guys on the handlines to take a breather on the Charlie side. Repeat that, I got a little nod over here. They're doing one on the Charlie's side. Look, the guys on the handlines take a breather just a second while they're flowing the truck. Yeah, ten, four. I'm see if you can come straight more for these to Charlie's high a little bit more.
