They’re pretty cool. I worked with them in Katrina.

I don’t have a boat. I was a volunteer responding to the disaster. I worked in one of the many shelters providing counseling to the victims, as a chaplain.

Wow! OK, did not know that. Did hear the Cajun Navy guy interviewed saying it wasn't just about rescues but also shelter, catering, counseling...
