Why was there a need for a foam and purple k operation ?
At the October 16, 1970 fire on Adelphi Street in Brooklyn, the cellar had a lot of tires which were heavily involved. The chief in charge special called the Hi-Ex Foam Unit, had it set up and pumped the cellar full of Hi-Ex foam. Good results and good field test for a relatively new product (at the time). As IRONLUNG said, the tires provided a heavy fire load.
If you have access to it WNYF 2nd Issue of 1971 has a good write up on the Adelphi Street fire.
