Go ahead. Hey, we're coming up on the dock. Do you want us to launch? Yeah, go ahead and launch for now. If anything changes, I'll let you then. We'll go ahead and launch. All right, copy that. Due to kitchens and distance, it's probably going to be a solid 40 minutes until we get around to you. Alright, no problem. I'm trying to call the Coast Guard now on the radio. Not getting anything yet. Engine knife clear. Can't copy. Battalion 2 to battalion 3. Go ahead. Hey, Chief, I think Hampton's response would be a whole lot quicker. Fireboat 2 could probably be there before Fireboat 13 if you want to call from mutual aid instead of boat 7. Flight 14 respond. All right, received. Copy, Lahr 14. Sign 2 is clear available. Copy. 16 Alpha to 16 Brava. Engine 11 in route. 16 alpha, go ahead. All they gave us was zone of fire. I don't have anything further. Engine 16 alpha to engine 16 brother. 16 brother, go ahead. Engine 11 in route. Bring me the thermal imager. Copy. Copy that. Commanded battalion 3. I got what appears to be a Coast Guard boat coming out, a little freak. Might be able to get them on 16. Yeah, I've tried to raise them on 16 for the last few minutes not answering. All right, from 11th Bay, I've got nothing obvious in front of me. Okay. Well, we're too far out to tell from here. Command of Medics 16. This is Medi-16, and that looks like the police boat that's out there because we see blue lights flashing off of it. Yeah, the cops are telling me it's the Coast Guard. Command of Medic 16. Go for it. I want you to head down to the beach at Chesapeake Boulevard, see if you can make your visual contact. with the vessel directly off the beach right there, it's probably going to be about 100 yards out. All right, Mississippi Boulevard, you say? Yeah. Titan who's arrived? The Italian treat, command. Go ahead. All right, I'm obviously listening everything. I'll go into Zoom command. I just want to make sure I know everybody's had. So you're currently at 11th Bay, correct? Correct. 16 right here at 13th Bay. No, 13's on the way. I'm getting ready to call Hampton. I think that's everything I'm missing anything. No, I'm going to suggest we shift down the Chesapeake Boulevard to the beach access there. Every time I get a good flash of lightning, I can see about 100 yards out. I see nothing obvious here, but there's what appears to be a boat down that way. So we're going to head that way. Engine 11 arrived. Time 2-0.4. I'm sure you buy a number. Legion 11 Norfolk. Is there a key holder you can get a hold of?
