Fire Retardent Test 6
The foam test system at Ellsworth Air Force Base malfunctioned and wouldn't shut off as intended, spraying foam all over the area for an extended period. Photos show firefighters struggling to contain the foam spraying from drains, and a vehicle parked with windows open that became filled with foam due to an oversight.
