Description
May 22, 2011 an F5 tornado devastated Joplin, Missouri, a town of 50,000. It cleared a path 0.75 miles wide and 7 miles long. It was the deadliest tornado to hit the United States since 1947.

In this photo, a truckload of disaster relief volunteers drive through what remains of homes. A sign among the rubble reads, "Press On."
