New Orleans: Fly low and slow over Convention Center to air drop?

Katrina is an enormous challenge in logistics. New Orleans is at the
southern end of a very large damaged area. It takes time to clear roads,
inspect bridges, etc. I saw one photo where every single power pole for
a half mile or so was snapped off and lying across the road. Whether
that was a main road is unknown, but clearing that kind of damage takes
time.

You can't just run the National Guard in without food, water, fuel for
vehicles, places to rest else the NG becomes refugees within a couple of
days.

Seems I remember seeing on quite a few occasions the NG bringing all that
stuff with them. Do they now stay at Hiltons and have their meals catered?

I really can't stand the situation that is occuring in the Convention
Center. There are about two thousand at the Convention Center with NO
police or rescue personel onsite. Babies have no milk. At least two
dead bodies are there. An SUV with one police officer drove by and
raced away. One girl has been raped.
