A month after a tornado, all that remained of the Fields' former home was a pile of debris, including a mattress that probably saved their lives. Said to be Oklahoma's worst tornado in 17 years, it was categorized by meteorologists as F-5 using the Fujita-Pearson scale and destroyed nearly 2,000 homes and damaged 7,000 others. This photograph was used in the article "Real-life Twister," from the September 1999 AIRMAN Magazine

MSGT Elliott Finkelstien from 4th CTCS documents the devastation from the F-5 tornado was total, as houses just exploded and after cars were tossed about like toys in the wind. The tornado was the largest recorded in Oklahoma's history, it was 1 mile wide and left a path of destruction 19 miles long

The devastation from the F-5 tornado was total, as houses just exploded and cars (not shown) were tossed about like toys in the wind.
