This update includes a complete reworking of the ICS 214 form's functionality within Fire Journal.

We’ve improved and simplified the way in which it works with your contacts list - useful when you’re building a crew for your ICS-214 form.

Other improvements include:
• On the iPhone the list of ICS 214 and CRR forms are accessible from the form, no longer will you be sent back to the home menu when dismissing a form.
• You may now create a new Incident in the New ICS 214 form with the same interface that is used in the Dashboard, including Fire/EMS Resources.
• Campaigns can be closed and all of the associated campaign forms will be closed and marked in the menu list with the From and To Dates.
