🔍 Key Concepts

• Fireman’s outfit requirements for cargo and miscellaneous vessels in 46 CFR (look at parts covering fire protection equipment) • What equipment is needed for breathing protection and personal protective gear during a fire • Difference between required firefighting gear and detection/measurement instruments

💭 Think About

• Look at which items are clearly part of a person’s protective firefighting clothing and breathing equipment, and which are more like a separate tool or instrument. • Ask yourself: which of these four items would a firefighter actually WEAR as part of their outfit, and which would they CARRY as an optional or separate device? • Consider which equipment is listed in regulations as a standard part of each fireman’s outfit, not something that might be shared or provided separately on the vessel.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are clearly wearable protective items that go on the firefighter’s body (clothing, helmet, SCBA). • Check 46 CFR fire protection sections to see what is explicitly listed as parts of a standard fireman’s outfit for cargo/miscellaneous vessels. • Note which remaining item is more of a measurement or detection device rather than part of the outfit itself.
