How many pockets and attachment points are in our turnouts?

• A. Six pockets and three attachment points
• B. Four pockets and two attachment points
• C. Eight pockets and four attachment points
• D. TBD

Answer: (D)

Turnout gear configurations aren’t standardized to a single pocket count. The number of pockets and attachment points varies by model, year, and department customization, so there isn’t one fixed total you can memorize. The reason this question uses a TBD is to emphasize that you must verify your own gear or consult the manufacturer’s specs to know the exact count on the set you’re using. In practice, you’d inspect your turnout coat and pants, tally all pockets, and identify every attachment point (for radios, tools, lanyards, etc.) on your specific gear. Since the precise configuration depends on the exact gear in use, it’s something you confirm rather than assume.
