Bell 214 Helicopter on the Mammoth Fire in Auburn Calif

Bell 214 coming into the Auburn Airport to re-fuel, USFS copter 516 out of Big Hill. The Bamby Bucket scoops up water, then a pump in the helicopter transfers an additive into the water to create foam. I was told that the additive is dish soap, turns out that "Dawn" is the preferred soap to use!!
