There is a shortage of nearly everything on the north side of the Tar River in Pitt County. Continuous airlifts of helicopters ferrying food, ice, water, clothing and other essentials, such as the cots being loaded here. Until the river levels drop, those stranded on the North side will depend on this airlift of supplies. Volunteers from the Nacco Corp. are shown helping out here. Photo by DAVE GATLEY/FEMA News Photo
