National Guardsmen SP4 Roger Drobney and Capt. Jerome Feldstein keep vigil in the rain Thursday, July 27. Gov. Romney had lifted a 9 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. curfew earlier that day, but was forced to reinstate it by 7 p.m. when sightseers jammed 12th Street. That night, guardsmen continued to search cars attempting to drive through affected areas.
