Personal purchase of firefighting gear
Since I am new to firefight I am wondering was there any type of gear that people personal paid for to add on to the fire gear provided by the district. You know maybe a certain type of flash light, different gloves, or some other type of tool that you like to have with you on a call.

Hi, I carry a pair of folding pocket spanner wrenches. There's nothing like needing a spanner wrench and having to walk a long way to get one off a truck or wait while you send someone. I have had mine a lone time and they cost me around $10 bucks at the time. I am sure there $15 to $25 now. Also, I have Firefighting Gloves but I also carry a regular pair of everyday All Purpose Work Gloves. You would be surprised how often they come in handy. And one more thing. Its always good to carry a pair of clear plastic Safety Glasses. Hope this helps.
