Just looking for some ideas as to what you carry in your bunker gear pockets? I carry ear plugs, safety glasses, wedges, wire cutters, small piece of utility rope, 2 carabiners and a piece of sidewalk chalk inside of a small piece of pipe insulation to prevent breakage and a mess. I am interested in a bail out bag of some sorts and more ideas of what to carry, mainly for safety reasons.

I try to carry very little now, when I first got on I carried a trucks worth of crap in my pockets, just more weight.
now I just carry a folding hose key, a multitool with a pullstation rod in the case and a door stop hinge. Oh ya and a radio to call for someone else to bring whatever else is needed from the truck.
