Coast Guard Opens Route To Ice-Locked Virginia Town

TANGIER ISLAND, VIRGINIA - JANUARY 25: People crowd the Daley and Son Store after food supplies arrived January 25, 2003 in Tangier Island, Virginia. The small fishing community in the upper Chesapeake Bay had been locked in ice and isolated for more than a week due to the extreme winter weather. Food stocks on the island had been dwindling, and following the deaths of several residents whose bodies were unable to be evacuated because the bay was sealed in ice, the U.S. Coast Guard intervened to break free a route to the island.
