More than 15 Louisiana National Guardsmen from the 1022nd Engineer Company and the 844th Engineer Company out of West Monroe, La., are assembling emergency levee walls on the banks of the Ouachita River in Monroe, La., March 13, 2016, to protect the city from rising river levels caused by excessive rainfall. The Soldiers are working in conjunction with the Tensas Levee Basin District to transform half a mile of hinged concrete slabs, which are usually the sidewalk alongside the river, into a six foot tall levee.
