8/10
Earthquake & Fire!
4 November 2003
This film highlights the role of the United States Army in transporting supplies following the 1906 earthquake and fire in San Francisco.

This short shows the army bringing in supplies on horses and mules. Victorian homes and a church can be seen in the distance. Pack trains such as this were the quickest and most efficient method of transporting large amounts of supplies through the hilly and rubble-filled streets west of the docks.

The film is done very well in very dusty conditions.
