Resupply

A young man in a brown t-shirt smiles at the camera near a gray military helicopter with spinning rotor blades, while personnel in uniforms and helmets unload boxes and water in the background.

Today (August 29, 2007) is the two-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina hitting the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

In this photo, Civil Air Patrol Cadet Jeremy Locke looks on as other CAP members and U.S. Navy personnel unload water and MREs from a Navy Seahawk helicopter at Trent Lott International AIrport in Pascagoula, Mississippi. This photo appeared in the very first edition of the Civil Air Patrol's "Volunteer Magazine" after it changed it's format from tabloid to magazine. (and yes, the helicopter was running and the blades were rotating when this photo was taken).
