Dozens of active duty and former Navy SEALs are assisting search and recovery efforts in Texas Hill County in the wake of the deadly flooding last week. ABC News embedded with the volunteers in an exclusive report.

More than 30 SEALs are lending their expertise in navigating difficult terrain and diving in the Guadalupe River as miles of destruction and debris line the area.

"You saw the violence of this thing," said former Navy SEAL Greg Froelick. "So, you kind of have to put that in the back of your head, like expect to potentially find the victim. But ... I think finding one, it's reassuring in the sense that now the family knows, at least they have a little bit of closure."

Froelick showed the area they first searched outside Camp Mystic, explaining their crew was using chainsaws to cut through the dense forest of flattened trees. Unfortunately, they did recover several victims.

"None of us have seen anything like this," said Froelick. "I think everyone was just taking it in and just realizing what just happened here."
