Sponsored by Mercedes Textiles
Episode 14 of The Size Up by National Fire Radio was sponsored by Mercedes Textiles. They want to know just how often you CHECK YOUR EQUIPMENT. Now, being a hose manufacturer , you may think they mean the equipment on your apparatus, but they aren’t talking about that equipment. They mean YOUR EQUIPMENT.
April is Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, and Mercedes has partnered with the not for profit DETECT TOGETHER. Just like water on the fire, when it comes to cancer, early detection is key. This week Pip sits down with Detect Togethers firefighter ambassador , Jason Patton, yes the Jason Patton from all the funny social media clips. Pip also talks with Josh Hardy, a Texas firefighter who recently discovered he had testicular cancer.
The Size Up by National Fire radio would like to thank Mercedes Textiles. Not just for sponsoring this important episode, but for their commitment to the health and wellness of firefighters nationwide.
