<p>A flotilla of small motorboats from Louisiana, dubbed The Cajun Navy, arrived this week to help rescue efforts in flooded areas of hurricane-ravaged Texas. </p><div class="usher-ic1" style="text-align: center; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px; " id="usher-521585402"><!-- /339474670/USHerald/USH_InArticle_1 -->

<p>Hundreds of boat-owning civilians braved torrential rain, powerful winds and impassable roads to reach their destinations throughout the Lone Star State.</p>
<p>On Sunday, Houston police issued a plea for help with rescuing people trapped by the advancing flood waters. Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said the city had received 2,000 offers of help.</p>

<p>The Cajun Navy wasted no time assembling an armada of boat owners on social media. The group also helped with rescue efforts during a major flood in <a href="http://usherald.com/black-lives-matter-gets-called-louisiana-flood-victims-epic-viral-video/" target="_blank">Louisiana</a> last summer. </p><div class="usher-ic2" style="text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px; " id="usher-174245624"><!-- /339474670/USHerald/USH_InArticle_2 -->

<p>Jon Bridgers Sr., an organizer for the Cajun Navy 2016 Facebook page, said the group was organizing "a large push."</p>
<p>"It's just something we have to play by ear a bit and see how the weather cooperates," he told WAFB.</p>

<p><a href="http://usherald.com/tied-left-dead-distressing-photos-deserted-dog-causes-outpour-concern-flood-waters-rise-texas/" target="_blank">Hurricane Harvey</a> ranks as one of the most devastating storms in Texas history. In less than 24 hours the storm had dumped nearly 30 inches of rain across the state, with an additional 20 to 30 inches of rain expected this week.</p>
<p>"The breadth and intensity of this rainfall is beyond anything experienced before," the National Weather Service said in a statement.<br><a href="http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_.jpg"><img src="http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_-1024x681.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="681" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-48700" srcset="http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_-1024x681.jpg 1024w, http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_-300x200.jpg 300w, http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_-60x40.jpg 60w, http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_-120x80.jpg 120w, http://usherald.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/57c21c257617d.image_.jpg 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></a><br>
The Cajun Navy wasn't fazed.</p>
<p>Known for its delicious food and a healthy appetite, Louisiana's Cajun community is known also for its welcoming spirit. Many Cajuns, having been raised in the bayou of Louisiana (another hurricane-prone state) view boat ownership as an absolute necessity.</p><div class="usher-ic3" style="text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px; " id="usher-1103494693"><!-- /339474670/USHerald/USH_InArticle_3 -->

<script>

</script></div></div>
<p>And with a little bayou know-how and a big helping of compassion, The Cajun Navy came together, willing and able to serve their neighbors in Texas during their time of need.</p>
<p><strong>Do you think flood-prone states should organize their own civilian "navies" to help in rescue efforts?</strong></p>
