Storms Flood Holland

The North Sea rose up and lashed the Netherlands' coast in 1953 with hurricane force winds. Heavy seas punch holes in the dikes, inundating homes, farms, and cities. Good aerial views of the affected areas. Excellent CUs of pounding waves, volunteers filling sandbags, and Queen Juliana's visit to the hard hit area.
