The helmet was used in Liechtenstein at the voluntary fire department of the city of Vaduz. The badge of the city of Vaduz is appropriate at the front.

There is a uniform rank regulation for the firemen in Liechtenstein. The education, the function and the experience are taken into account at the rank. The ranks are adjusted to Switzerland. The Liechtenstein fire department association made a rank regulation for the fire departments of Liechtenstein in 1990. He was supported by the office for civil defense and country supply. The ranks in the different fire departments before were quite differently, mostly there was the chieftain, first lieutenant and second lieutenant only. The ranks correspond to the ones in Switzerland today, merely some were left out. The rank here is First lieutenant (two stripes).
