I'm taking a look around the alley here, so you've already got 18s, 21, and 35s currently, so I think we're good in the alley.
00:09
Some component of Rescue 1 is gone to get the fan for us off the ladder 8,
00:14
and the only other thing I'd recommend is if you want to straighten out the hose line naming convention, we think we're a fire attack from the Charlie side.
00:29
Right, we're going to keep you fire attacked.
00:32
We'll put engine 20 of line 3.
00:37

Come up from interior command.
01:06
No floor two.
01:08
We just have some light,
01:10
lazy smoke.
01:13
There's a straw from the interior, wet or not, or rescue one is on the roof, checking for any kind of extension.
01:22
Fire is completely knocked out.
01:25
Right now we're just cleared out some debris doing some light overhaul.
01:34
Okay, Anderson,
01:36
Fire under control. Can you walk through the entire building out to the Charlie side just to make face-to-face contact with Division Charlie? So I know that we've walked through the entire building.
01:49
That's affirmative. We can walk from Alpha to Charlie through the building.
01:55
I'm looking at Charlie Division right now.
01:59

Division Charlie, if you've got a fan ready, we've got an excellent point on the alpha side.

03:11
Okay, engine 20 is coming out. You're keeping a rescue one and engine 18 on the interior.

03:48
Okay,
03:54

I'm just going to have you stand by on the roof unless things change when we turn the fan in.

Our one fan died, we're retrieving another.
04:20
We're also recommending just because of the size of the roll-up door back here.
04:27
One fan is going to be difficult. I don't know if you've got a smaller opening in the front.
