I remember my first call... Just out of our volunteer academy,did a ride along with ourpaid crew. Only one call all day; cat in a tree...

That's exciting compared to the nonsense we put up with every day... :confused2:

When I was in LE, I always wore my level111 vest, I didn't care how hot it was. Some of the older guy's would skip it, in the heat. Like your gear, it is a PITA, but cheap insurance., and I believe in insurance brother!!

I can't remember just when Dallas started issuing the vests, but I never had one; never had one on. I'm sure it's good insurance and a good idea, but in Texas heat, I'm kind of glad I never had one.:laughing:

You firemen sure do have cooler looking hats though I hated ours till we got to do the "swat " thing, then I was right at home in my ball cap:laughing:
