Old Gear for a Good Cause


Changing safety standards and advances in fire science technologies have lead to safer and lighter firefighter turnout gear. The changes over the last sixty years have also created a bit of a dilemma. What should be done with all of the old gear? Our 9-2, Nick Siminiski, found an elegant solution in the "9/11 Fund" out of NYC. We were happy to hear that the 750 pounds of old gear that we sent to the fund in January has been combined with gear from other companies and sent to Parague to help fill the needs of firefighters there.
