About 8 Marines died on that flight. The Commander actually survived, but now spends his life racing in marathons to earn money toward the deceased Marines children college tuition. Just thought you should know...

wow....dead marines?? I dont know much about choppers but I thought it was a low altitude crash from the boat to the sea....did they not manage to get out or what??
And for the pilot who survived, was he court martialed for the accident although he did not do it on purpose???

Pilot did not judge the landing pad location right.
