Two station Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Marines

Two station Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Marines spray down an empty capsule with water after being covered with aqueous film-forming foam, during a fire training exercise conducted at the designated burn area, Feb. 3. The capsule stands in as a fallen aircraft and the foam is a chemical agent which separates the oxygen from the flames in turn putting out the fire. Training fires are conducted bimonthly to keep Marines proficient in their skills.
