Three brothers (L-R) Brandon, Bradley and Jason George walk on a railway track, the only dry land back into town, after returning to their home to save their puppy following Hurricane Rita, in Delcambre,  Louisiana, about 30 miles (48 kms) south of Lafayette September 25, 2005. U.S. President George W. Bush said on Sunday that Congress ought to consider giving the U.S. military the lead role in responding to natural disasters, as he heard one general describe the Hurricane Katrina rescue effort as a "train wreck."
