States Marines lost in an H-53 helicopter crash in San Diego,
California, last week.
These young men embodied what it means to be military pilots and U.S.
Marines. As aviators, we know that risks, even during routine training
missions, are part of the job. Our Nation will be forever indebted for
their sacrifice.
Captain Jack Casey was a 2019 graduate of the Virginia Military
Institute from Dover, New Hampshire. He was 26.
Captain Miguel Nava was a United States Naval Academy graduate from
Traverse City, Michigan. He was 28.
Captain Benjamin Moulton was from Emmett, Idaho. He was 27.
Lance Corporal Donovan Davis was from Olathe, Kansas. He was 21.
Sergeant Alec Langen was from Chandler, Arizona. He was 23.
These five marines will forever be remembered in the military
aviation community. Please keep their family and friends in your
prayers. We are eternally grateful for their service and sacrifice to
our great Nation.
