Summary

Lt. Col. James A. DeLapp, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District commander, speaks during a ceremony at England Park in Nashville, Tenn., where officials unveiled a high water mark sign. It is the first of more than a dozen high water marks to be placed in different locations around the city. The Corps participated in the "Know Your Line: Be Flood Aware" initiative to draw attention to Nashville's flood risk by showcasing how high the water rose during the historic May 2010 floods. The program was developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Park Service, USACE, U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Resources Conservation Service, U.S. Department of Housing and Development, U.S. Geological Survey, and U.S. Small Business Administration. Nashville Metro Mayor Karl Dean is standing behind the Nashville District commander. (USACE photo by Leon Roberts)

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
