Noticed in a few pictures that some FFs have on globe looking gear. I'm guessing it's a field test being done by the department during a contract bid Photo credits to the photographer and firstonscene

I have no idea how I noticed this but the FF from R-3 has side zip up bunkers pants similar to the ones worn by FDNY EMS members. Never seen this on the fire side, is this a prototype the department is trying out or did he just get it modified? Credits are in the photo

I heard that new gloves are going to be issued all FF's and are alot better than the old ones. Did anyone else hear this? I think it would be good considering the ones issued now suck. My pair always stiffens up and has terrible grip, its like your wearing oven mitts.

I was looking at the pictures of the job in Mount Vernon on 8/20 and saw a picture with FDNY 39 Truck. I know this was one block from the Bronx but did 39 Truck operate on the box?

Any jobs today in the Bronx? I was getting gas a saw 164 Truck driving near I-95 in Co-op City and figured maybe they got relocated for a job and I also saw 48 Truck near the Throgs Neck bridge.

I was looking through FDNYtrucks.com today and saw a picture of a Spartan FDNY Engine  which was not numbered. Does anyone know what company it was assigned to or was it never used? Thanks. http://fdnytrucks.com/files/html/specialunits/other.htm  Its the rig right before the transport buses.

What did the FDNY Patrol company's do? I remember hearing about the city shutting them down but what were they?

I've been hearing alot about FDNY auxiliary and wanted to know what did they do, were they firefighters, why and when did they disband them. Thanks
