April 2, 2009: Dakotas, Minnesota Wings Continue Aerial Assistance for Flooding

On this date in 2009, the South Dakota, North Dakota, and Minnesota Wings of the Civil Air Patrol continued to provide aerial assistance with flooding in the region.

An excerpt from NHQ:
MINNESOTA – The North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota wings continue to support flood relief efforts in northeastern North Dakota with aircraft and aircrews. 
Aircrews were providing aerial imaging of the confluences of several rivers along with a survey of the Red River in the Grand Forks area. The mission base opened at 8 a.m. April 2 with two missions assigned at the time. Operations ended with nightfall but are expected to resume at first light in the morning.
