Mandogalup - we didn't get called to that. I believe it might have been Mundijong & Oakford.

What brigades were missed, it is fine to add to the list. SES Support/refreshments little difference, if it was a particular unit that attended that's often easier.

If you had a look at my post it says i missed some stations/brigades. With the SES i was saying thats what they were called for, but i believe another unit was dispatched for tarping etc. It was quite a large job and many stations/brigades attended.

Rescue1 i presume you are a SES vollie? Did you attend this job?

im a SES vollie
As for tarping there was nothing left to tarp. just a burnt out shell

Anyone know where this decent fire is in the henderson/wattleup area ? Scanner is dead quiet, and this thing is throwing up a fair bit of smoke
