Fort Calhoun does not require fire fighters to wear turnout gear for fit 
testing.

FYI - I recently (within the last week or two) watched the fit test training 
video that comes on the CD with the Portacount software and surprisingly they 
did have a guy wearing bunker gear (jacket and helmet) doing the fit test 
exercises.  I think they actually said anything from the shoulders up that 
could interfere with wearing of the respirator should be worn during the fit 
test.

Thanks,

DCPP wants to know, does anyone require Fire Fighters to wear turnout gear 
during Respirator Fit Testing?

Thanks
Randy
