In the listed police equipment, which item is categorized as Personal Equipment?

• A. Radio
• B. Holsters
• C. Cameras
• D. Computers

Answer: (B)

Personal Equipment covers items that the officer wears or carries on their body as part of daily duty gear. Holsters fit this idea perfectly because they are worn on the belt and used to carry the officer’s firearm, making them inherently personal to the responder’s everyday kit. They’re designed to be worn and accessed directly by the individual, unlike items that are more broadly owned or used in a vehicle, desk, or station.

In contrast, radios are typically viewed as communications gear, often issued and used across personnel; cameras can be department-owned recording devices (even when body-worn), and computers are generally department or unit assets rather than personal wearables. So the item that best represents Personal Equipment is the holster.
