Is this really much different than say a police patrol pulling into a McDonalds 'drive thru' whilst out and about to get something to eat?
I'm sure that the SAR crew didn't leave base just to buy ice creams, it was just something they could do whilst on task.
A nothing story, well unless the press is going to start hounding the other emergency services who stop somewhere to get a bite to eat whilst in their work vehicle.
