Abstract: |
Protective shield structure for the sleeve of a firefighter's coat. The protective shield structure is in the form of a curved member which is attached to the end portion of the sleeve of the firefighter's coat. The protective shield structure is positioned above a part of a glove worn by the firefighter adjacent the end of the sleeve of the firefighter's coat. The protective shield structure thus prevents the entry of water and other material into the glove as the firefighter is engaged in firefighting activity.
