Additional engines arrive, they're all four-wheel drive capabilities out of Lancaster County.

02:18
Send you a five.

02:46
That's negative at this point I don't have anything I can send you
02:54
Command[1] to engine 92 officer
03:02
Q's coming down with that Unimoo thing to haul guys up.
03:07
Okay, right now we have a total of 46 personnel, and that's making up between multiple engines and brush trucks.
03:14
But three regular engines, three four-wheel drive engines, and about eight brush trucks.
03:21
The MCU is mobilizing to come up to you now.
03:25
Okay,
03:26
I will take any of your four-wheel drive engines hold their crews, but try to send me a total of 20 personnel,
03:35
and send the brush trucks up to...
03:39
They're asking us, I think go around the block, correct them to come in from the Colonial Valley side.
03:45
We need to get them up on the west side of this pile.
03:53
You said only one brush truck on the Colonial Valley side.
03:59
No, go ahead and send me two or three.
04:01
Just keep the person off for the four-wheel drive engines if I need to deploy them.
04:07
That go.
04:11
Personal.
04:19
Large dozer on the west side here.
04:22
We're going to see if we can pay that five-way cut.
04:28
Strucks for that side. Can they go into that first farm and then come back across the top of the wood line? Would that be any help to you or not?
04:37
Their best bet would be to come in at the complex down there. We're 32 that come around that side and come straight up in the field. I think that's the best shot.
04:48
through the field on the west side.
04:51
That's correct.
04:54
Okay.
04:57
Command[1] from C-47.
05:01
Good.
05:04
I can take a bus truck.
05:06
They need to come in on that next farm lane and come up the farm lane, stay to the left and come around to the top. They can come across the field up top then.
05:16
Okay. Okay.
05:18
Command[1] 2, Engine 92 officer.
05:26
Copy C-47 for the brush trucks. Have them. They're going to have to have to come in from the Colonial Valley side because of the line across the road.
05:33
The first farm before this incident,
05:37
they'll turn left, go back up that farm lane, stay to the left as much as they can and get up into that field and meet with C-47 will be their contact.
05:47
Okay.
05:49
