  15. We (the Cypress Creek Volunteer Fire Department of Northwest Harris County,
  16. Houston, Texas) use different classes of uniforms.
  17.  
  18.         Classs A  -  White shortsleeve shirt, black slacks, black shoes, badge,
  19.                      ID, TSFFMA patch, departmental patch, certification
  20.                      pathes, cap is optional (but usually not worn)
  21.  
  22.         Class B   -  Blue T-shirt (navy blue) with departmental emblem, blue
  23.                      jeans, athletic or work shoes, cap (optional)
  24.                 OR
  25.                      Navy blue golf or polo shirt (with collar and 2-3 bottons),
  26.                         with departmental ensignia, blue jeans, athletic or work
  27.                      shoes, cap (optional)
  28.  
  29.         Class C   -  Navy blue jumpsuit with short sleeves, TSFFMA patch,
  30.                      department patch, certification patches, badge (removed
  31.                      before responding to a call), ID (removed before
  32.                      responding to a call), HCFFA patch (optional), cap
  33.                      (optional)
  34.  
  35. Now, remember that this is a FD, so any removable items, like ID's, badges, or
  36. caps, will be removed before a fire call.  Now we do have EMT's who will
  37. respond with either class A or class C uniforms with ID and badge on.  It seems
  38. that only the hicks (I am sometimes one of them =) wear caps in this dept.
