ATTN: to all those going in
Depends on how well stocked Quarter Master is, somethings are usually on B/O
What to expect from your fittings at The
Quarter Master.
5 Dark blue button up shirts
6 black polos (1 you bring home for rotations)
2 light blue shirts ( short sleeved )
1 light blue shirt ( long sleeved )
5 black work pants
1 Pair of Duty boots
1 Class A Pants
1 Class A Jacket
1 Rain Coat
1 Work Sweatshirt ([the one where you zip up from the chest up])
1 BI Jacket (The short jacket with removable lining)
Duty Boots
Class A boots
Bunker Gear (pants & Jacket [both loaners])
(You get yours with your name on it, at the end of the academy)
Helmet
Work Gloves
Red Bag to put your bunker gear, helmet and work gloves in
Tie
Tie Clip
Cover (hat)
2 collar brass
1 cover shield
3
FDNY PT Shirts
2
FDNY PT Shorts
1
FDNY red PT sweat pant
1
FDNY red sweat shirt
White gloves (part of class A)
2 Belts. Smooth one is to be worn as part of your uniform. The other one is your duty belt so you can put your buff **** on it and wear it over your uniform belt in the field.
Bullet resistant vest (which you receive at the end of the academy)
Duffel bag is available for purchase, you are required to have a black
duffel bag with nothing on it (no
nike check, under armour logo, NOTHING). It costs about 35$ AT quartermasters to purchase if you want. This is for carrying your books and supplies and
YOU WILL NEED IT
I believe that is EVERYTHING I may be missing 1 or two items, but I am not 100% sure.
Everything that is
BOLD, ITALICIZED, AND UNDERLINED are things that you leave with them at quartermaster so that they can put your names into it for the end of the academy. Everything else, you bring home.
For your locker, i suggest you bring extra change of clothes, just in case anything happens.
Leave your red bag (PPE) in your locker with the bunker pants, bunker jacket, work gloves.
( PUT YOUR NAME ON EVERYTHING ! )
If you need to shave a lot, then leave a set of razors and
shaving cream in your locker. (i always did it before i got to work anyway, but you can look after your buddies in case they forget or they need to shave).
Leave deodorant in your locker ( don't smell like $hit, people will hate you, lol.)
Make sure you bring your pt shirts and shorts home after pt days and wash them, PLEASE!
If you can afford to leave your
running shoes in your locker, do so. so that you wont forget.
My advice so that you don't forget anything at home when the academy starts, is to leave your stuff in your car. Put your tie and
tie clip into your cover and leave it in your car.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR CREDENTIALS WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES (DRIVERS LICENSE, DEPARTMENT ID, AND EMT CARD)
AND RESPECT EVERYONE (It will save your *** and it is only right that you do so)
NO PHONES
Again I might be missing something here or there, but pretty much it.
Congrats to all who got in, and Good Luck!
