Card info          As a childhood chore, CharBroil was made to heat the water pipes in the family basement with a blowtorch to keep them from freezing and bursting in the winter. As a teenager, he worked in the mills on the Great Lakes, feeding coal into blast furnaces. When the recruiting sergeant asked him what type of job he was interested in, he replied, "What have you got with open flames?" 
 
Charbroil came with a silver and red thermo-insulated oxygenated helmet, a silver pressurized thermochemical backpack (with a hologram glued on), a silver flamethrower, and a large thick black "flame-retardant" hose that attached the flamethrower to the backpack.  (missing hose)
 
Charbroil was released  as part of the seventh series (1988).
