I Will Rescue You: Hurricane Harvey
After dumping tens of trillions of gallons of water on Texas, Hurricane Harvey swamped millions out of their homes. No one was spared: Black, White, Asian, Latino, Rich, Poor, and the many who are scraping by. The men and women of the Armed Services led battalions of volunteers who set to work with only one thought in mind: to rescue fellow citizens from the rising waters of hurricane Harvey. The expressions on faces tell stories ranging from quiet heroism, to despair and profound relief when the brave rescuers arrive.
