That was the standard equipment until the "bunker gear" came in the mid 90s. They wore "just" the classic long coat (ruberized Nomex coat) and 3/4 rubber hip boots which covered most part of the leg when pulled up
No, the Kevin shown in the video is alive and well. He was badly injured in the first WTC bombing, but he is still alive. There was yet another Kevin Shea who was badly injured in the second WTC bombing.
Maybe my memory is screwed, but didn`t Kevin get klilled a couple years after this was filmed? I swear I read something about it back in the early 90`s.
Dear John Walsh, you nee3d to bring this show back!!!!!!
