Interview With Russel Honore
CNN Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer   09-11-2005

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) BLITZER: General Honore, thanks for joining us here on
"Late Edition." Let's get to the issue of the nearly two weeks after
Katrina hit -- tomorrow morning it will be exactly two weeks -- what is
the status right now of your mission?

HONORE: Our mission continues to focus on search and rescue, and
providing medical care to the citizens in the joint operational area,
focus on the coast of Mississippi, up the I-20, in the heart of
Mississippi. And in New Orleans, as a center of the area where the
flooding took place, to include Jefferson Parish, St. Bernard Parish,
Orleans Parish, Plaquemines Parish and St. Tammany Parish in Louisiana.
Over.

{Honore referred to Blitzer as "Sir", and finished all his answers with
"Over".]
