KINGSTON, LUZERNE COUNTY- They say real men wear pink. Now firefighters are following suit.

It's all to benefit breast cancer awareness.

The Kingston and Forty Fort Fire Departments have been selling pink t-shirts for over a month and a half.

They've raised more than two-thousand dollars for breast cancer research.

Now the firefighters will be sporting the shirts as well.

Kingston Fire Fighter Jason Azarewicz said, "You're going to see pink. Kingston and Forty Fort firefighters are all wearing them. When we respond to residences or businesses you'll see us wearing these shirts."

If you're interested in purchasing a t-shirt, contact the Kingston Fire Department for more information.
