Overheard:
Rescue 1 to command (on air): "We have no pressure in our 2.5 inch
line" (only one line in operation at the time)
Command: "Go again"
Rescue 1 to command: "We have no pressure in our 2.5 inch line"
Command: "Repeat your message "
Rescue 1 to command: "We have no pressure in our 2.5 inch line"
Fire Alarm to command: "Do you have that message?" (about to relay the
message)
Static/other company inturrups message flow temporarily
Rescue 1 to command: "We have no pressure in our 2.5 inch line"
Fire Alarm to command: "Rescue 1 reports no pressure in their line,
recieve?"
"Command has that"

This was all during the initial operations when they only had one line
in the building and were making an interior attack.  The above
messages took over a minute to get the information to command that the
firefighters had lost water.  Shortly thereafter evac tones were
sounded.  Wonder if they had not lost water would they have been able
to continue interior attack?  IE did the loss of water make things
worse and cause the evac tones?
