    I remember Althea it like it was yesterday, I was only seven at the time, we survived by huddling in the one remaining room that held together.* When the eye came through I though the cyclone had turned around and come back. We kids had the time of our lives afterwards swimming up and down the flooded streets around Hermit Park.
    *Wedding party from wedding that day and Cats and kittens.
    The damage was seriously major, we had no cyclone building standards back then.

    Several four engine Lincoln bombers were damaged at the air base too.
