From what I understand, nobody was injured during the flooding, is that accurate? It's a relief if true, it looked awful from the air.
The members of the Maine Army National Guard and all the other responders did a great job helping to limit the damage to the town as best they could, I'm hoping Fort Kent recovered quickly.
Hi all, I shot this video, and I was in the dark green Forest Service UH-1 helicopter with Governor Baldacci, and aide of his, and a member of the Maine Emergency Management Agency.
Sorry about how choppy the video was, but when I returned to Camp Keyes that night our editing software wouldn't recognize me as a legitimate user, so I had to do the barest of chopping before handing the video off.
some very amazing footage there, my family has tons of pics of this but no videos, if i was there id probably fill up my 8 gig SD card with videos, how was the helicopter ride was it scary, i bet its loud in the cabin b/c of the engine noise and did you have to wear those headset things.

Amazing. The spring 2008 floods will always be remembered in the St-John River Valley.
