Firefighters

[Mohoender]

Reading some things in the US Army issue weapon threads, I had the envy to design the followings. I hope you'll like them. I forgot the air firefighters attached to the french air force. Strangely Fire Fighters have been largely forgotten by T2K but may be some of you have some elements on your own.

For my parts I designed the two that are attached to the military. I'll try to post something on air, professionals and volunteers later. If you have any critics feel free.
