Firefighter Bunker Gear and Helmets
Hosted By FRST Challenge Admin
Resources to help better understand the gear and equipment that firefighters wear on the job. Bunker gear (also known as turnout gear, fire kit and incident gear[original research?]) is the personal protective equipment (PPE) used by firefighters. The term can refer, depending on the context, to just the trousers, boots and jacket, or to the entire combination of protective clothing. The terms are derived from the fact that the trousers and boots are traditionally kept by the firefighter’s bunk at the fire station to be readily available for use.
