To me it’s an example of training scars. I can imagine academy or training where there is a victim at the window and you get ripped for not having your ppe on, what if those gasses knock you out and make you a liability and another problem? However sometimes you gotta use common sense. Someone’s right there, make the grab obviously it was possible and practical. Also mask up faster
I was a cop. They used to tell us stories about dead cops with brass in their pants pockets or coat pockets because you revert back to muscle memory under stress. They were screamed at for dropping their brass on the ground at the range, so they put it in their pockets. Same idea here.
Same,,actually a cali state trooper was shot to death. In the academy they taught to take out both speed loaders (revolver days) out before reloading. Guy was killed in between getting both on car hood and picking the first one back up to actually reload.
In the this case zi would say the ff is already gonna get ripped for being in a high danger area without proper ppe. Might as well get a save cert to go with your safety write up.
