Lead by BAC! Fighter Darla Klausner, the airmen of Fairchild Air Force Base (AFB) answered the call – the call to Fight BAC!® In April, through collaboration with the 92nd Public Health Flight and the Defense Commissary Agency, Darla executed a Fight BAC!® Food Safety Awareness Campaign at the Fairchild AFB Commissary. Their mission: to provide Fairchild residents with information on how to properly clean, separate, cook, and chill food to prevent foodborne illness.

Over a busy couple of days, Darla and her team of airmen from the 92nd Public Health Flight distributed Fight BAC!® fliers, magnets, and stickers to commissary patrons. By the campaign’s end, they had reached over 300 people, stressing the importance of food safe practices. Mission accomplished!

Interacting face to face with consumers is a powerful way to drive food safety messages home – we salute Darla and the airmen at Fairchild for their work in spreading food safe messages! Together, we can achieve a food safe America.
