all mobile from Butler fire station to Lancilin Sporting complex at about 1200. arrived at lancilin. was told that the fire was heading towards lancilin and Ocean Farms, approx 20kms away, but has been pushed back by westerly sea breeze, might be required to east of fire for property protection, waiting on call from IMT at Warreroo DEC for mobilization.

approx 1600 hours. Kwinanna, Butler, and Duncraig were sent back home. the rest went to the control point on orange springs road, then tasked for mop up duties around property on Orange Springs road. was sent home at about 2130 hours. i was on the third light tanker, and yeah pretty much only did a lot of driving and not a lot of work. pretty much started using water at 1800. but have now done a river crossing with the light tankers.
