    A group of approximately 8-10 individuals, including military personnel in camouflage uniforms and civilians, are standing in front of a large aircraft hangar numbered '818' that is discharging massive amounts of fire suppression foam. The foam is billowing outward and upward, covering the ground and filling the air around the group. This appears to be either an accidental foam system discharge or a controlled test of the hangar's fire suppression system.

    A small sea of fire retardant foam was unintentionally released in an aircraft hangar, temporarily covering a small portion of the flight line at Travis AFB, Calif., Sept. 24, 2013. The non-hazardous foam is similar to dish soap and eventually dissolved into liquid, which was helped by high winds. The 60th Air Mobility Wing firefighters helped control the dispersion by using powerful fans and covering drains. No people or aircraft were harmed in the incident.
