So with all the other burning color question that must be answered, there is one that hasn't come up in a while and must be addressed. If I wear a yellow helmet and black gear should I have a yellow hood to match the helmet, black to match the gear or a contrasting color for visiblility. Same if I wear a red helmet and tan gear, or a white helmet. And should I take into consideration if I will be riding in a red truck or a yellow engine. I mean if you are not fashionable on the fireground it could set a bad tone with the residents who already think it took you too long to respond anyway. (Since you couldn't figure out if you should run your red lights with your Q siren or just blue and use the air horn on your way to the station.)
I am so glad I am part of a group that takes things so seriously. I couldnt make it through each day without laughing at myself or my Bro's. Seriously! OH Heck! I cant be serious.
Only if you want to remain "In Style". If you don't care how TACKY or TRASHY you look, then by all means, just throw on any old turnouts with any old hood and helmet!!
Of course, you'll only be welcome at trailer fires, but what the heck!
On NEXT weeks show! How to make sure your gloves and hose don't cause a scene!!!
Sweeetie. Go with the Yellow hood. Get some matching yellow gloves. You'll be vibrant and everyone will want to be just like you. Smashing. Silly fire dog.
