>> Earl Dunbar is someone who needs more respect then he could ever possibly receive. He saw someone who had lost everything except her children, and helped her. He saved her life, and her children's lives. He is a true Hero.

Earl Dunbar, Louisiana Capitol Police
Earl was one of the many dedicated police officers that came to the rescue of so many people during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. On one of his routine calls of that fateful week, Earl came across a displaced mother with two small children and this newborn that was just days old. The mother was exhausted, could not walk one more step, and Earl stepped in to offer his assistance. He took the mother and her children, including the newborn baby pictured here, and rushed them to the hospital to be taken care of properly. Thanks to people like Earl who are constantly willing to give of themselves, many lives were saved that day.
