1967 Hammon, Oklahoma Tornado

      In June of 1967, a tornado hit the Hammon area.  My father, John Flick, saw the tornado and quickly snapped a roll of film of the terrific storm.  A family of four perished in frames 6-8. My wife's cousin, Jevon West now lives in a house on the site where the family perished.

     The tornado was approximately two miles from the my father's house. The view is looking southeast as the tornado moves from right to left.
