I must have footage of the '67 flood because it shows my deer hunting buddy Monroe in a buckskin jacket.

Who is the guy smoking a pipe with the glasses? And who are the four at the end with arms around each other?

At first, you wonder why one guy had a life vest on when others didn't. If you have ever been pulled by the current of the river you know the answer and obviously he was at some point.

Pipe smoker would be Ray Patterson, that's his 50 Chev blue pickup pulling the Civil Defense pump

Here is part two.

At about the 4 1/2 minute mark, we see a bunch of locals, who are they?

Part 1

Who are the young guys near the end of part 1? Looks like they are standing close to where the Indy is located now.

Kenny Steckman is in front of the Independent, Lenny Blaschko. does Monroe still have that jacket?

Sorry for the confusion earlier, yes I have the same footage and it is from '65. I do believe Monroe still has the coat. If I remember the story correctly, the coat was made in Faribault and took three deer. Nice to see the footage in ditigal.

...and here is final part 3.
