A United Cajun Navy commander leads flood recovery efforts in his hometown of Kerrville, Texas, where 121 people died in catastrophic flooding.

The United Cajun Navy and Mission Mules are providing emotional support and recovery efforts in Central Texas, nearly a week after deadly flash floods devastated the area, with the United Cajun Navy accepting no new volunteers for this mission but inviting support on their website and Mission Mules accepting donations.

In the wake of catastrophic flooding in Central Texas, the United Cajun Navy, a volunteer group largely made up of combat veterans, has joined search and recovery operations.

Maps show how heavy rainfall and rocky terrain helped create the devastating Texas floods that have killed more than 120 people.

Kerr County officials say death toll has risen to 96 due to the Hill Country floods, including 60 adults and 36 children.

On Wednesday, hundreds prayed, wept, and held one another at a prayer service, among the first of many somber gatherings to come in the weeks ahead.

State officials said rescue efforts in Central Texas following devastating flooding continue, emphasizing the state's continued commitment to recovery.

At least 118 people are dead after heavy rain led to devastating flooding in Texas. Kerr County was hit the hardest, with at least 95 deaths, including 36 children. President Donald Trump signed a disaster declaration for the county and the Federal Emergency Management Agency is on the ground there.

Kerr County first tried to secure $1 million for a flood warning system in 2017, but could not. Could such a system have prevented loss of life on July 4?
