[Modern Firepower] Technothriller gear for secret DHS team in 2017

Other staple pieces of kit include flashlights and hand sanitizer. Sadly from a techno thriller standpoint the most common flashlights are cheapy rubberized LED ones like found near Walmart checkout or in dollar stores. A lanyard is essential. Often staff will spend time juggling flashlight, pen and clipboard, or are wearing gloves to protect their hands/keep clean and don't want to dig light out of pocket. A skilled staff member can tell an offender is alive by shining their flashlight only on his body and watching, so they don't need to wake him up or shine light in face

Hand sanitizers are used for the obvious purpose of cleaning. I've almost universally seen it worn in a holder attached to the thrust vest shoulder strap . . . I'm not sure how they would be worn with a conceal able vest


Another interesting tool that may be encountered is the 911 tool. This is like a pocket knife with a curved blade and hooked point, but the inside of the curve and hook is sharp. It's designed to slip under a noose and cut down someone that is hangling without cutting them
