It is still a huge step up from wearing structural gear like we did for years.<br /><br />We also bought wildland helmets and boots with the grant, so no heavy helmets or bunker boots.FireCap5https://www.blogger.com/profile/03212518132355928502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-489648728739050434.post-38740827116528616632010-12-01T18:33:44.493-08:002010-12-01T18:33:44.493-08:00FC5 - Thanks, I took them several months ago and f...FC5 - Thanks, I took them several months ago and forgot I had them until I was backing up my files!<br /><br />As far as wildland PPE, we all prefer two piece. I used to wear a nomex jumpsuit years ago and I hated it. A pain to get into and a pain to get out of. Plus, the department got away from them as the crotch kept getting ripped out of them.<br /><br />The trick used to be to get assigned to a USFS fire, rip the crotch and swap them for two piece nomex ppe. Sneaky, huh?<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.Capt.

On a related topic, I was looking at your pics and noted the type of wildland gear. <br /><br />Do you prefer one or two piece gear for wildland?<br /><br />We have one piece overalls that go right over our street clothes.<br /><br />Just curious...........FireCap5https://www.blogger.com/profile/03212518132355928502noreply@blogger.com
