26 July 2006 - New Orleans - Louisiana. Law and Order.
2228 MP Company, Louisiana National Guard. Military Police patrol. 5th District.
With crime beginning to pick up as people return to the city following the destruction of Hurricane Katrina, 300 Louisiana National Guardsmen returned to New Orleans to supplement local police and provide increased cover and back up in parts of the city that remain derelict and thinly populated since the devastating floods. Hearts and minds. A resident who returned from evacuation in Memphis to see his once flooded house for the last time describes to officers what it is like to have lost everything he ever worked for. He claims he can not afford to rebuild and will never return to the city.
