Stationed n "Noladishu" for four years. Good thing I was gone most of that time traveling as part of the job. The wife had to deal with all the crap that makes up New Orleans. We lived on the "Wes Bank", caught the ferry to work. Best time of the day was 0500 runs (summer) up around Tulane or out on the levy. We counted ourselves extremely fortunate to have never been "jacked" (car jacking is a blood sport there) or robbed. There are a few areas of the city that are hauntingly beautiful, but it's all the rest of the "sh#$ that goes along with it that sours the whole deal.
