DECATUR, Ga. - Members of America's Cajun Navy loaded up their boats and are now flooding into South Carolina.

Officials said they welcome anyone who wants to join them in the relief effort.

The Cajun Navy made national news after they stepped up during major flooding events like in Baton Rouge and when they helped with rescues in Houston after Hurricane Harvey.
