All right, dispatch, just saw you're fired.
00:01
Can you advise which unit you'll be sending that way so I can get it dispatched?
00:09
I was in 1162.
00:11
It'll be a few minutes until we get going.
00:15
I just want to sign it to the cab, thank you.
00:24
Cameron, you need me to come.
00:26
I'll be just a little bit.
00:33
Hi, your number,
00:34
location.
00:41
Reno County six by six, be fully aware this is extremely soft out here.
00:53
50 to 606. Drugs are 6.
00:58
104. I gave him directions to get out here to us and start getting us out.
01:09
605 to the Reno County 6 by.
01:12
I just pulled into the scene.
01:19
Well, I got him right here.
01:20
What do you need?
01:23
I'm focused on the east and they can get a pickup behind him.
01:26
I think we're pretty good on this west flank now south of the trees.
01:30
So I'll have them go back and if they can line a pickup up with them run out east line.
01:41
County tanker 306 is 108 to Preston.
01:49
Yeah, I? 10-4[1]-12152.
01:52
The east side.
01:56
1231 to command, we've made it to the tree belt, the first tree belt.
02:00
We're going to hit, is it okay if we cut this fence, get on this east flank, and then get on the north side of that tree belt?
02:08
Yeah, 104 and 1231, I believe we're right behind you.
02:11
We're following your tracks.
02:12
We'll try to get to you.
02:14
Sample.
02:16
T. T. I want to water.
02:25
311, 108, press.
02:29
104-1219 6.04 is that order?
02:46
1231, we're out of water.
02:47
You're going to be up there by yourself for a minute.
02:51
Okay, I got 1234 coming in behind me.
02:54
I think this area right here is a little island and the fire's north of it, I believe.
03:01
Do we need to consider maybe coming in from the north? I look like that's going to be a pretty wet fly.
03:09
Yeah, this is really wet.
03:11
I'd say if we can get trucks coming from the north to jump on that northwest fire flight, that's where we're going to need to be.
03:18
Get forth.
03:19
See what we can get done.
03:21
I'll let you when we get water.
03:23
Let us know north or south.
03:26
Copy.
03:28
606 is unstuck going for water and we'll re-engage.
03:37
505 to all incoming brush units that are not on scene yet.
03:42
Instead of the dump locations go to northeast,
03:49
the 10th Avenue and 80th Street, I believe it will be the northeast corner under the fire and attack from there.
03:59
701 on scene, copy that traffic.
04:08
7.04, correction, 704 is on scene.
04:13
Okay, 4, 704, 12.23.
04:18
1231 to command.
04:20
1231 to command.
04:21
Bivis, we're on the north side of the tree belt.
04:23
We've got a left fire plank.
04:26
If they can get trucks in off the north road or from the north, it's going to be best.
04:30
This is soft, and we've got, we're going to have to cut out of their fence.
04:35
I'll get some dangers up on that north road when we're going.
04:45
704 to command.
04:47
You want us to come in off of 110th Avenue.
04:52
Yes, 10-4[1]. Either the road going east out of Preston that first dirt road, you can jump in, it will be a pasture on part of it.
05:00
That's just where we can think.
05:01
Let's focus on the west line first.
05:05
In 4.
