What do you have on your gear

[DMA327 12]

Going with what ALS said... If you have ESS Extrication goggles...DO NOT wear them into a fire...big mistake!

Happened to someone i knew, ruined his helmet!

[Remember585 815]

A little off topic, but I once saw a guy with a sticker on his helmet that said "department a-hole." Who in their right mind would wear it unless it was a punishment by higher-ups?!

My helmet has an Interior sticker, 2 american flags and a "585" on it.

[Guest alsfirefighter]

585..lol.............. I still can't stop laughing.....

Like we haven't talked about that at length over and over and over again....hehe. I certainly know quite a few that should wear it. Heck, I'm sure there are a few that know me or on here that think I should wear it. lol.

ALS: Nah...you just need a sticker that says "Bad a** Motha Fucker".....akin to Pulp Fiction..... 8)

[Guest alsfirefighter]

HFD u got alof of stuff man and ur tellin me you have used it all at one point thats crazy and you say you have an empty pocket 2 damn

[Guest alsfirefighter]

Back on a serious note. Don't forget the more crap you carry, the more restrictive it can become when you need to get somewhere or out of something in a hurry.

[DMA327 12]

Hey if u need to u can always take the stuff outta ur pockets and replace your tools at a later date

i dont have much on my gear. since my crew is only really allowed at ems scenes i have a couple pair of sterile gloves. im gettin a glove-strap soon. i jus have a couple stickers on my helmet because i jus got issued this one as the one ill have for a while, so im buyin the band for it, the flash light, and an attachment for the maglight i have now.

BEST EQUIPMENT GOES TOO:

I carry 1 chili dog with hot mustard in one pocket, another one with both ketchup and mustard, some extra napkins so my battalion chief can't see that i'm eating while on a job, lol

[sbvfd596 2]

cpr mask, gloves, mechanic(extrication/rope gloves) , f gloves and glasses that i stole from my hs shop class , thats it

how often do i use all this stuff, pretty much never

the mechanic gloves and the glasses, almost every drill thats about it

[Guest DADAY]

Many people should start and continue to practice using the fire gloves at drills. No the extrication gloves, the more you use them the better.
