With this scenario on you--and you had all the resources available |
|
except an airport, military helicopters, trains, buses and automobiles--how would you evacuate the City of New Orleans? I'm curious cause I wouldn't have a clue.

1. Well, at this point boats sound like a viable option. |
|
or perhaps floating cars?

3. boats are very difficult, too |
|
there are buildings, houses, and tons of debris in the water, not to mention gas lines and power lines.

2. Have Seabees build an airstrip |
|
As I understand it there is land above sea level in NO proper. Build the airstrip big enough to land C-130s, bring people to the airstrip by boat, helicopter, whatever available and fly them out. To where, I have no idea.

4. Use night vision to locate live victims at night then.... |
|
during the day use the helicopters and planes to drop off rations,life preservers and aid to the people who you can't get to also it wouldnt hurt to have a UAV or two overhead to survey damage.
