This throwback ambulance design, affectionately called the Meat Wagon, honors the legacy of our EMS brothers and sisters. The Emergency Medical Services (EMS) was established in 1973 to help patients get medical care and transported to the hospital quickly. Fire Department Coffee salutes the EMS of yesterday and today with this Meat Wagon Shirt. Our shirts are an athletic fit and/or fashion-forward fit. They are more form-fitting and on the longer side.
