Inside the Cajun Navy: How Volunteers are Training to Rescue Hurricane Victims | Freethink

After Hurricane Katrina, volunteers with boats rescued thousands of flood victims. Those volunteers have evolved into the “Cajun Navy,” a cluster of groups which have helped rescue many more people stranded in the wake of Hurricane Harvey and other floods and major storms. We followed one of these groups, Cajun Navy Relief, as they prepared for their first-ever Search and Rescue games this spring. The games were just the latest effort by the group to add new skills and capabilities to the all-volunteer group. Can civilian-led rescue be part of future disaster recovery efforts?
