Saturday thoughts: Your Tacticool pants

Saturday thoughts: USE YOUR POCKETS!

We talked extensively last week in our IMT LSC course, Operational readiness, and EOC course about what you should bring during a disaster in the response phase. Particularly, I get sooooo many inquiries on what to bring and have on your person 24/7.

What do I carry in my pockets? Usually I carry:

My left bellows pockets, I carry my FEMA official book as well as a printed copy of the current Incident Action Plan (IAP).

My right bellows pockets, I carry my coffee/water cup.

You paid good money for them and they are not just regular pants. Y’all got these #tacticool pants – SO USE THEM!

Again, use all the pockets!

Do not be afraid to use your equipment to it’s fullest extent.

Have you seen @TSA Mr August #SafetySur

Have you seen Mr. August?

Here’s my Uncle Pete doing some #SafetySur stuff for the official Transportation Security Administration (TSA) 2015 pocket calendar. Celebrity status for sure! So if you’ve been through the Honolulu International Airport, you’ve probably seen my Uncle (who has since been promoted to supervisory/management at TSA HNL).

If you were wondering, my Father and Uncle are proud Veterans who served their country. Yep, safety runs in my family’s blood…Safety runs in my blood. #SafetySur

Our family has always served this great country and I am extremely proud of all my family’s accomplishments and their continued vigilance on safety.
