Noticed a few times lately that some WAPOL officers have the full fluro yellow shirts with the blue checks. They are like the vests but a shirt. Anyone else noticed this?

Re: General fire discussions

Thanks for that info. Im guessing all DBA turnouts are under firecall conditions ? the first appliance mobile is always firecall unless the premises calls sayings its a false alarm then they would proceed normal rd. the 2nd appliance would be normal rd and if false alarm would stand down altogether...
