What a great photo. Even though I know it cost very big bucks to clean this mess up, I couldn't help but laugh. This is not the first time something
like this happened. I was in the Air Force Fire Protection in 1985 in North Dakota when the new B-1 Bomber came on line. The newly renovated hangers
were having their grand opening with every General an Politician they could stuff in the hanger. The contractor was a low bid company who never
installed such a large system. When they turned on the system for a demo (with no foam, just to show the nozzles turning) they hit the wrong valve,
sending a water hammer through the system. The entire hanger and several Generals were soaked with foam. Thanks again for the laugh.
