Keesler Medics Aid Katrina Victims: More than a year after Hurricane Katrina struck the Mississippi Gulf Coast, medical teams from Keesler AFB, Miss., continue to make daily house calls to residents still living in area shelters. Two teams of doctors, nurses, and social workers evaluate the people’s medical conditions, providing treatment and care.

Schavonne Fludd, who coordinates the medical visits.
