1947 base newspaper tells hurricane tale

Mr. and Mrs. Verberkmoes display a copy of The Keesler Field News published on Sept. 26, 1947. The newspaper had been intended to commemorate the sixth anniversary of Keesler Field, but instead gave an account of the “Hurricane of ‘47” that struck the Biloxi area. The newspaper has been given to the base history office. (U.S. Air Force photo by Kemberly Groue)
