Spc. Ryan Lindberg, and Spc. Michael Young, both of the 817th Engineer Company from Jamestown, N.D., jump from a flatbed truck as a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter prepares to lift a one-ton sandbag from the truck, June 24, near a flood levee near 13th Street and Railway Avenue, Minot, N.D. The soldiers have just attached a one-ton sandbag to the helicopter sling-load cable so the helicopter can place it in an area of concern at a flood levee near 13th Street and Railway Avenue, Minot. The North Dakota Army National Guard soldiers are responding to an urgent request for flood assistance from Minot city emergency management personnel in an effort to save a residential area from rising food water of the Souris River. Several residential areas of Minot were inundated with flood water on June 24, leaving thousands of people homeless.
