The Texas Military Department extends our deepest condolences to the victims, families, and communities devastated by the recent flash floods in Kerr County and beyond. What began as a holiday weekend turned into a heartbreaking disaster — and we have responded with everything we’ve got.
To date, our rescue operations have resulted in the successful recovery of over 500 individuals.
- 361 citizens were airlifted to safety by our UH-60 Black Hawks.
- 159 were rescued on the ground using high-water vehicles and other specialized assets.
These numbers reflect more than statistics — they represent lives saved, families reunited, and the unwavering commitment of our men and women in uniform to serve this great state.
We will not stop. We will not slow down.
