Posted 4 months ago What do your dept have to make rookies standout on scene or in the dept!!! |
|
| Posted 4 months ago uniform is just the same as anyone else just without a badge or nameplate. our turnouts they wear our older gear and helmets unless they cant fit into them than they just look like everyone else. |

|
| Posted 4 months ago only thing that distinguishes us between each other is our nametages on our coats and our helmet numbers rank and color, asst. chief-white, capt-white, lt.'s-red, ffs black...we just have a thing to where the probie gets to know that they sit in the rear driver seat and is the hyrdrant man for awhile and does not sit in rear officer or backup man seats for awhile. |

| Posted 4 months ago I have seen many ways of doing this on a fire scene. 1. Green Stripe on the back of a helmet (2” Tape) 2. If using a “NY’er helmet we gave them front shields with an orange passport the said Probationary on it. 3. They used different color turnout. FF had the tan/gold gear and probies had black Omnis Cedo Domus |

| Posted 4 months ago Lord only knows what are probies will be wearing for gear! Our seasoned vets were tan PBI, probies get the old yellow and black nomex. Vets are wearing New Yorkers or 1010's and leather boots. probies ware the phillies and the rubber boots |

| Posted 4 months ago Helmet color is what diffrentiates ours. Our regulars wear black helmets and our probies wear yellow helmets. Ross Caston

|
| Posted 4 months ago Rookies wear yellow modern (Cairns 880) helmets while everyone else wears traditional (Cairns 1010/1044) helmets in black (FFs), red (Captains), or white (chiefs). |

| Posted 4 months ago We make ours go without pants. The largest room is the room for self improvement |
|
| Posted 2 months ago We all wear the same Helmets and gear but the only difference is.... Everyone who is over 150 cert has bright yellow with silver refective triangle on their helmets, less than 150 cert has bright orange and silver reflective triangles and explorers/juniors just have a dull yellow triangles.

But, the Marines don't have that problem." United States Marine Corps |
