'Alright, thanks guys. I'll bring the lines back and while you check the van, I'll check the woods with my TIC.'
*I bring the line back with me and get out a TIC. I walk back into where the trees where and start checking.*
"Woods are clear."
*I bring it back and help with the hotspots.*

Re: Unknown fire
'No, not right now. I guess we could start cleaning up.'
*I disconnect my line and put it back on the truck. I allow the supply line to refill the squad and ladder. Then I put away the TIC.*
"This is Davis to Burke, all the fires are out and the van has been overhauled. Possible arson, you may need to investigate. Should I make a report?"

Are you OSC or in a commanding position? No. Haha. That's my fun. You ask me as your overhead if you can make the report, not Burke
3 Fire units responded to an unknown type fire. First on scene was a squad, which reported a vehicle fire into the brush. They began taking care of the immediate threat as the pumper and ladder pulled up a short time after. Knockdown was achieved in approximately 1 hour, No injuries, fire contained within less than a 100 foot radius of the vehicle. Class A foam and water used, and a search of the van was inconclusive for anything out of the ordinary.

Re: Unknown fire
I put the TIC away and pack up the lines. I take off my SCBA and put it in the SCBA compartment backwards to know that it has been used. I take off my helmet and put it on the drivers seat and lean against the Pumper after turning off the lights.*
'Hey guys, remind me to refill the bottles...matter of fact...nevermind. I got it.'
*I refill the bottles. I then put them away and lean against the Pumper.*

Re: Unknown fire
*I get out of the Pumper and shut off the pump and tank and yell to Galligano:*
'Dude, your putting that back yourself man! there's no fire anymore! haha.'
*I get back in the Pumper and turn it off to prevent the gas from draining.*
