Can't see the rationale of using specialty units (2 squads and a rescue company) for a brush fire.?!!

The squads have 1st due engine boxes.Sq 270 is probably first due here as an engine.

Squad and Rescue Normally Assigned All All-Hands Fires; IC Discretion for Operation.
ALSO: I Believe SOP Requires Rescue & Squad Assignment Not Returned Until PWH or UC.

I guess E319 was unavailable - I think they’re normally in the mix here

I think 319 was actually first due - they were assigned on a box for a fire reported further west in the park and ended up being escorted in by PD.
