While researching the Marion National Forest, I came across
a fascinating newspaper article, “Francis Marion has hidden cameras, Forest
Service says devices used for law enforcement,” BY TONY BARTELME, The
Post and Courier, Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - http://www.postandcourier.com/news/2010/mar/16/francis-marion-has-hidden-cameras/

According to DiscoverSouthCarolina.com,
“McClellanville is situated on the
Atlantic coast, on land surrounded by Francis Marion National Forest and has
traditionally derived its livelihood from the sea and coastal marshes by
fishing, shrimping and oystering. In 1989 the town was devastated by the full
brunt of Hurricane Hugo, which destroyed homes, fishing boats, trees and much
of the picturesque character of this historic fishing village. The stronger
north side of the eyewall passed directly over the village. Residents who took
refuge in Lincoln High School, which had been designated as a storm shelter,
were surprised to be flooded by a storm surge which threatened to drown all the
refugees. Helping one another, in pitch darkness, they were all able to get
into the space above the false ceilings in the building and no one was lost.” http://www.discoversouthcarolina.com/cities/159
