"UPDATE: Firefighters Suspended for Patriotic Stickers Can Return to Work, Chief Says
Four suburban Chicago firefighters say they were suspended after refusing to remove patriotic stickers posted on their helmets and lockers.
The Maywood firefighters say they were ordered to go home for refusing to remove stickers of American flags after their fire chief implemented a ban on all stickers."

Had they put an ISIS flag stickers on their bunker gear they would have been G2G, gotta love POTUS's adoptive hometown / state . . .

Am I insane or were fire fighter helmets at one time REQUIRED to have a US flag on them? I swear I remember bright yellow helmets with US flags on one side.

They even say that that they have US Flags on their uniform but not allowed to put an American Flag sticker on their locker?

I can agree with not letting the USMC sticker on it.....I too find that offensive....:jester: Kidding, to all of my brothers from the Corps. :haha:
