White for all Chiefs, Red for LT's and Captains, and Black for Firefighters. We keep it pretty simple. We do this so a member can be easily recognized on scene. The Chief should stand out as command to incoming companies. The LT's and Captains should stand out to the firefighters. The firefighters should not have to be mistaken for one of the Officers.
