just out of curiosity.... why is it named "Rescue 65" when it has "Rescue 1" written on the aircraft?

Fantastic pics too mate!

pretty much they call it rescue 65 as 6 is the state number, and 5 is the only one that is not close to helitacks and waterbombers.

helitacks 668, 669, 670, 671
air recce 661
air attack 660
bomber 601, 602, 603, 604
