When Air Force foam goes wrong; military guys in Afghanistan lookin' after their weed

Mordred sent over a nice bit about what happens when some military guys at Ellsworth AFB test the emergency flame control foam in a hangar. And they lose control and can't shut it off, so the entire hangar fills up with foam. It's one of those things that would make working in the military really cool if there weren't any wars. Here's a writeup from the Air Force, wherein they claim that it was not an accident. Here is another place to see the photos at strategypage.com.

Also, on HumpingFrog.com, we find out why the occupation of Afghanistan continues: the weed is pretty good. The vast amounts of opium help, too.
