Do you display your countries flag on your fire apparatus or uniforms?

It's not uncommon to see American flags on fire apparatus.

On uniforms...

or even stickers, patches and badges.

Question 1 • Is the USA flag something that your department includes on your uniform and/or fire apparatus?

Question 2 • If you are not from the USA, does your department displays their countries flags the same as we do in the USA?

All our apparatus have flags, various sizes, the largest being the rear of our truck. Our class 'A' uniforms have only our regional crest on both arms. Our Work uniforms or class 'B' have our regional crest and a community tag on one arm and the Canadian flag on the other. We are a composite dept. with 30 volunteers and 1 career per shift. Career and volunteer uniforms are basically similar

Post 9-11 Reminders are ever present in our minds and hearts... and in some cases, helmets denoting the USA flag are included in both poster graphics and actual fire helmets.
