David Diaz (L) and his brother Jesus Diaz walk among the rubble of about 30 Sadler Apartments and a hundred St Charles Condonimums that were obliterated by Hurricane Katrina.
"We're looking for our house," said Jesus Diaz as he clutched a small box, his only possession left.
Hurricane Katrina ripped into the US Gulf Coast, stranding people on rooftops as it pummelled the historic jazz city New Orleans with 160 km/h winds and swamped Mississippi resort towns and lowlands with a crushing surge of seawater.
