Uniforms and Insignia
Fire Explorers receive uniforms that identify the department that they're in and mentions that the individual is an Explorer. The types of uniforms are listed below.
| Official Uniform Name | Description of Uniform | Occasion |
|---|---|---|
| Class A | Light blue/Black/Gray dress shirt, Dark blue dress pants, dress shoes | Public events such as parades, funerals, fairs, etc. |
| Class B | T-shirt/Polo shirt (duty shirt), pants | Station/Duty Wear |
| Turnout (Bunker) Gear | Bunker coat, bunker pants, bunker boots, hood, gloves, and helmet. | Field Wear |
Uniforms will almost always bear the insignia of Fire Exploring and/or the fire department they run out of. Class A uniforms can bear the American Flag shoulder badge, the official Fire Explorers badge, and sometimes the badge of the department they represent and various pins like name plates etc. The Class B uniform T-shirt will be a simple Explorers or fire department logo printed in the shirt. Turnout gear may or may not have much more than the name of the Explorer printed on the back on the jacket.

“I place these numbed wrists to the pane
watching white uniforms whisk over
him in the tube-kept
prison
fear what they will do in experiment”
