| Description | Bulldozer Jockeys have a special technique for flood fighting. It is a double action procedure of moving their equipment out into the flood stream bed and with the bulldozer blade widening the stream channel, at the same time pushing the blade load into a shore line embankment. Here is shown a bulldozer operation on the Walla Walla River in the Milton-Freewater area during the recent January flood. The channel widening, bank shoring processes can be visualized from the picture. |
