U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Immanuel Banks, 325th Civil Engineer Squadron fire protection lead firefighter, observes a Fluorine-Free Foam training exercise at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, April 9, 2024. Tyndall AFB became the first Air Force installation to receive and employ the F3 conversion within its fire departments, effectively replacing the aqueous film-forming foam. The new foam is the lead component in the Department of Defense-wide initiative to remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances from firefighting resources, as extended exposure to PFAS may lead to adverse health outcomes.
