Search and Recovery Underground Parking After Tsunami on Patong Beach in Phuket, Thailand

These Thai people are poised at the entrance of an underground parking lot at Patong Beach while a diver without equipment swam below in search of victims. He would tie the rope around a car bumper. Then, this crowd would pull together until the waterlogged car emerged up the ramp. In 2008, I learned that one of the Rotarians we worked with had lost his wife in this garage.
