Pretty much self-contained at this point on our division.

 Sam, can you give me updated conditions on your division and needs for additional resources?

 As for Division Alpha, we are working on getting knocked down here on our flank.

Yeah, copy. I'm seeing the same thing. And are we going to be able to let it just bump the road, or are you guys going to have to lay hose into there and put it out?

 Our objective right now is to let it come to us, and then we're going to knock it down from there.

 If we go downhill, we're going to fight fire downhill and system prefix us. We're going to let it kind of crawl to us and then start wetting it when it gets up to us.

 Yeah, I support that plan, and it'll save us a bunch of mop-up too, so sounds good.
