San Jose CA - 30 minute video - brush fire

https://youtu.be/jqjhwHfVmns

16:00 - hand crew goes in - fire front is only 100 feet away - no hose line

Boston would just drag in a 2.5 inch hoseline and put the fire out - except maybe if Boston had a 500 foot hill to contend with - no I take that back - I bet that Boston does have 500 foot hills in the woods - I know we have them in the suburbs

but California has to roll in the dozers and helicopters and airtankers and hand crews and command posts and tanker trucks

tanker trucks - what the heck were they doing with tanker trucks in that neighborhood? I bet they dont even have portable tanks for the helios to draft from
