[QUOTE="dukgnfsn, post: 169016, member: 596"] Was there as a National Guard on State Active Duty on the corner of 5th St & Belmount Rd. that day and directed traffic standing in the water with no protection other than my uniform until about 0300 the next morning. Legs were completely numb from being in the cold river water for hours until finally relieved. The next couple days spent driving a 5 ton truck evacuating people from homes and downtown. Then spent next 2 1/2 weeks doing missions of all sorts downtown with guard equipment and local area. Drove Police around in big trucks patrolling and lead the FD in on National Guard flatbeds to fight the Herald fire. Helped pull equipment out of hospital and many missions like that. May have been a lot of 20 years ago but many of the things I done during that three weeks still stand out plain as day. Probably the most amazing thing to me is we lost no lives directly to the flood that I know of. It was pretty amazing to see and something like the last 8 months of DAPL, both are something I never imagined I would ever see in ND and I got to be a player in both of them.
