Sorry, Captain 17, we're looking.
00:19
We got two, three reservoirs,
00:22
and I'm looking for the cabin.
00:23
The cabin we should be on east of those spot fires.
00:28
So from the cabin you looking north should have a reservoir into the ground that you're able to use the water from there.
00:34
Good copy. I think that's the one we're dipping out of.
00:38
Does you know a unit number? Negative.

01:37
Those smart fires are running away to the coal forest.
01:39
Battalion one copy two dozers, D6 or D9, some on a road.
01:44
Sorry, my good, thank you.
01:45
Cc Warned from Captain 17.
01:47
9-195. If two machines could be either D6 or D7, D9 will be too large, it may not sneak up the ring.
01:56
With 911, copy, D6 or 7.
01:58

02:14
No one answers at the residence, but the neighbor confirmed that it really lives at that unit C's all fine.
02:19
His vehicle is not there.
02:21

He can't hit me a number unless Darby wanted Rpinto.
