What do you carry in your PPC?

SA Firey:
What about a box of matches and a rake hoe :lol:

Thats all Euan needs :-D

probie_boy:
does anyone else use those P2 dust masks with the exhalation valves? Our brigade has them and i am never using them again. In order for the valve 2 work effectively you have to actually put your mouth around the valve. and those masks get very soggy. im back on the trusty bandanna

mengcfs:
With all these personal items we carry, what do you carry them in? My Brigade is looking at some bum bag style bags for personal items like phones, medication, leatherman, dust mask, nitrile gloves etc. Can anyone recommend a nice size durable bag? I have seen one with a reflective stripe stitched to it but not sure of the brand.

Hey ElectricEliminator,
If you want particulate protection in fire situations then a form of P2 mask is recommended - bandanas etc offer absolutely no respiratory protection whatsoever. If fact have been as providing a false sense of security.

But you make a very valid point about the P2 mask - they need to be fitted correctly and changed frequently to be effective..

Cheers
Shane
