Burrowbridge, UK. 22nd Feb, 2014. Commandos helping at Burrowbridge on the flooded Somerset Levels on February 22, 2014. A group of soldiers wave for the camera as they are transported through the floodwater by workers of the Environment Agency in a Trac-dumper, a specialised vehicle capable of going through deep water. Supplies of oil and mechanical parts are sent to Saltmoor Pumping Station where water from Northmoor is being pumped into the tidal River Parrett to provide relief to the flooded area. These are the worst floods on the Somerset Levels in living history.
