Posted about 1 year ago They say that no two departments helmets are exactly alike -- so what is yours like? Post a picture of it . |
|
| Posted about 1 year ago We use the standard Bullard shell. We are free to purchase a Ben ll or whatever we choose, so long as it is compliant. Rubberband, golf tees, lights, wedges, etc are optional. Jeff Draper

| Posted 12 months ago Same as chase1's department here. Allot of us buy our own helmets though. All of us that buy our own get traditionals. I think most of us have Paul Connway American Calssics, they are allot more comfortable than the tactical-tupperwear that we are issued. |

| Posted 12 months ago what do you with golf tees for (well except golfing)? |
|
| Posted 11 months ago Cairns 1010 is our standard department issue helmet. The largest room is the room for self improvement |

| Posted 11 months ago Golf tees are used for plugging broken or cut fuel lines. Likewise, we use wooden wedges to plug holes/tears in propane tanks. Non sparkable remedies. Jeff Draper

| Posted 9 months ago As for me, Give me leather, or give me nothing! HooRa! Like Sandy, Leather Forever! |

|
| Posted 9 months ago I would love to have a traditional, but alas, some of us have families and alot of bills. We are free to use them if we buy one. Maybe someday. I have changed helmet colors 3 times in the last 2 years. Maybe if I buy one it will level out. I sure as hell don't want to, or forsee going up again. I am happy with red. : ) Jeff Draper

| Posted 9 months ago My dept. is buying some new gear and they are getting a traditional style Paul Conway helmet. I am not sure what model, but it is a heavy frickin helmet. I already have my chief's approval to where an older helmet that is still in good condition, but much lighter to wear. Donald Bramer
