Hurricane Camille Photos - As we watch the continued horrific aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it is sobering to remember that this has happened before. Katrina may be worse but Camille was also destructive.
These photos were taken by Chauncey Hinman of Gulfport, Mississippi. The storm hit the USA in 1969.
From the site:
Hurricane Camille is said to be the worst storm ever to hit mainland United States. With winds in excess of 200 mph and tides over 20 feet, Hurricane Camille smashed into the Mississippi Gulf Coast on Sunday night, the 17th of August and continued its devastating path until the early hours of Monday, the 18th.
