Because I work for a volunteer service that consists of both fire and EMS in a fairly rural area, along with the private service I work for, I do carry a fairly large first in/o2 bag which contains:

O2 cylinder/regulator

02 masks and nasal canulas (adult and Pedi)

2 full OPA sets and 1 Full NPA set with lube

Adult BVM

Sam Splint

Trauma supplies (2x2s, 4x4s, 5x9s, kling, band-aids, multi trauma dressings, hot and cold packs, etc)

Protocol book

Space blanket

Tissues

CPR masks (2)

Box of gloves

I carry this in addition to my FD bunker gear and EMS turnouts with consist of: turnout pants, turnout coat, work/extrication gloves, and 2 helmets ( one for the volunteer EMS and the other for the private EMS service. I also carry my pager and portable radio

If you are running a Windows based OS, go to the start menu in the lower left corner of your screen. Click on it. Go to All Programs; go to Accessories; now go to System Tools; finally, there should the character map. Good luck!

Spanish class had me hunting all sorts of crazy characters. :lol:

screw them all, they can die. No I refuse to carry anything. My cell phone is the only thing I always have with me even then no guarantee I will use it.

In my car I have a small airway kit, just enough to attempt keeping someone alive until EMS arrives which hopefully is quickly.

If they die.....more food for the rest of us.

Would you like to be specific with your accusations?

Or would that be beyond your intellectual and grammatical capabilities?

Just to give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was just a lame attempt at sarcasm
