Basic question here, but I am always looking for new ideas and even the basics can be improved on.... so whats in in or on your turnout gear? Mine is used about 80% of the time on MVA's
Mine:
Helmet: Elastic band with garrity flashlight, wood wedge.
Coat: Pelican flashligh hanging from loop on chest(yeah, I know thats two lights but each has its uses), gloves and hood in left pocket unless needed.
Pants: Right pocket 33 feet of tubular nylon with a carbiner on one end, left pocket two extra wedges.
I am seriously considering adding a set of wire cutters to my coat pocket after reading several stories of firefighters being hung up in wires and also having been in situations where they would have come in handy otherwise, and am looking for a set that is heavy duty and easy to handle in gloves, any suggestions here?
