info from the old days in FDNY
3:50 into the video - noise cancelling mikes stop the feedback so
feedback assisted rescue no longer works - (it might also be due to
the digital based nature of the radio receivers nowadays - not sure
about that - my local FD was getting echoey feedback recently when 2
radios were close to each other - and that was using analog radios via
a repeater)
leather helmets - custom fitted
halligan and dull ax
etc etc etc
