RIT Pack Review

Every morning when I start my shift, just like almost every other Fire Department, I get a cup of coffee and hit the bays with the guys to do truck checks. When we're checking trucks, we're taking part in the C.Y.A. business and checking to make sure everything works and we have plenty of the supplies and tools we need. Something I do in particular is make sure my air-pack for the day is good to go.

What I've noticed is that the RIT pack is something thats easy to overlook. But if you think about what it can do for a downed guy on your crew, its probably one of the most important tools we have. And if you're making a habit of checking the air-pack you might have to breathe out of for that day, it makes sense to put this on the list.
