As I recall Camille happened in 1969. I was assigned to a training unit at Keesler AFB in September of 1970. I was a naive Westcoaster from California with only a few years experience in rain due to school up in Oregon at the time. I had no idea about the destructive nature of weather. We lived in an upstairs apartment on Racetrack Rd just over the d"Iberville Bridge across the back bay of Biloxi. I recall seeing the leftover water line stain inside the apartment below us, It was about 6 feet above the floor of that apartment, There were still ships pushed up along the shore on the wrong side of the highway over on the ocean side of Biloxi. That must have been an amazing life changing storm!
