Hurricane Audrey June, 1957

I was in the US Army stationed in New Orleans, La...at that time... serving as the 'aide de camp' to General Norman Vissering Commanding general of the Port of New Orleans.




In June, Hurricane Audrey hit the Louisiana coast and devastated Lake Charles a small town along the coast.

Some images:




General Vissering and I flew over Lake Charles in a military helicopter and observed similar scenes.

Wikipedia describes it.
