That embodies all there is about a 'whacker shirt".. and I as a true "Gonzo firefighter" wouldn't be caught dead wearing one!"The education of a firefighter and the continued education of a firefighter is what makes "real" firefighters. Continuous skill development is the core of progressive firefighting. We learn by doing and doing it again and again, both on the training ground and the fireground."

Oh I think we could all pool up some good money to pay to see the good Captain in that shirt.
The sheer blackmail potential involved is worth it.

So, to make the whacker world-class wardrobe complete, the following shirts should be in the collection:
1. The Gonzo Shirt
2. We Fight What You Fear
3. World's Greatest Firefighter
4. I gave my Fire Department twenty five years of my Life and all I got was this stupid shirt...
5. First In / Last Out
6. The person wearing this shirt is a firefighter. Now, lay back and do what the nice firefighter tells you...
7. Feel safe - sleep with a firefighter tonight...
OK, I'll close my bureau now...
Now, if the significant other has underwear that says "Chief for the night", does that make her a whacker too???

re: the Gonz shirt.. tell you what....
Tell you what...
There is a brother Firefighter/Paramedic named Mark Johnson who works for the Auburn FD and UMass Medical Center. Mark used to work for Patriot Ambulance, our paramedic EMS provider and is one hell of a nice guy.
His wife was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had a double mastectomy and may face further surgery.
His brothers in the Auburn FD and at UMass are raising funds to help the Johnson family defray expenses. Mark recently got appointed to Auburn, and on a probie salary things are tough.
The Johnsons have three young children, ages 8, 7 and 5.
I'll get the information for the fundraising efforts and post it here as soon as I get it.
You guys raise at least $1000 for Mark and his family and buy the shirt (size XL), I will wear it and post a pic here for all to see.
If I am going to compromise my principals, I am going to do it for a worthy cause!Last edited by DeputyChiefGonzo; 07-21-2006, 09:53 AM."The education of a firefighter and the continued education of a firefighter is what makes "real" firefighters.
