"The Cajun Navy are informal ad-hoc volunteer groups comprising private boat owners who assist in search and rescue efforts in Louisiana and adjacent areas...Eventually, the boaters would be directed by a core group of volunteers who would take requests to be rescued from the Cajun Navy Facebook group page. One volunteer started to gather requests into a Google spreadsheet which was accessible to other volunteers...then the volunteers used the Zello application to dispatch a nearby boater."
