During waterway debris removal operations, a hand-carved wooden figure was recovered and saved from the shredder by a truck driver, Asheville, North Carolina, June 9, 2025. Now known as “Rocky Ellis,” it serves as a symbol of resilience and a reminder of the lives impacted by Hurricane Helene (U.S. Army video by Kaylee Wendt).
