Hashtag 2. Hashtag 2, proceed. Hashtag 2, I just spoke to XR4 on the phone. They're having a hard time locating. Can you reach out to fire and get a better location for us to respond to? And also if we're needed? 10-4, Hashtag 2. You're talking about the boat fight, correct? Whichever side they're operating on, we just need a better location. 10-4.
