Here are four pictures taken 28 December 1941 at Imperial Beach California. The Chief Radioman in Charge wrote "These pictures were taken in the month of December 1941 of the Field House Bldg No 9 (DT) when the entire section was flooded by excessive rains and high tides which washed over the sand bank between degauser Bldg and pavement. All the streets of Imperial Beach drained into this low section in addition to normal rainfall over this area." Signed Chief H. F. Kane, CRM, USN. He wrote PS - "This area remained flooded for over three months as there is no drainage from this low section. The same condition is likely occur again during the rainy season."
