Exclamation POL fu*k up!!

My job in the air force is POL. It stands for petroleum, oils, and lubricats. We supply and transport jet fuel to all of the aircraft at our base. We had a mishap a while back. The truck holds 6,000 gallons of jet fuel and this is what happens when you loose control. Just thought I would share.

it doesnt look like to much fuel spilled. Those tanks are pretty well sealed.That would have been a nasty mess with 6000 gallons of fuel.I bet whoever did that will be doing alot of **** details for the next year.
