[FedCom] "Jackson Hotshots" fire team in SoFL

[Robert Wyman]

While in Homestead, Florida for dinner on Saturday night, two heavy-rescue trucks...but configured for passenger seating in the cargo box...were seen in the area. They were painted yellow with official markings and plates, plus "Jackson Hotshots" prominently painted. A web search of Jackson Hotshots identifies a BLM Fire Team from Jackson, MS. 

The trucks appeared to have a base-loaded VHF-Hi mobile antenna over the cab. I haven't done an FCC search (and not even sure if anything will show up...they may be on fed freqs)...but I figured someone on the list may know something about this team or their deployment to South Florida.
