    Statement on the Aircraft Tragedy at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Alaska
    September 22, 1995

        Hillary and I were very saddened to learn of the death of the
    American and Canadian service members in the crash of a U.S. Air Force
    AWACS aircraft at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Alaska this morning. Their
    loss reminds us how much we owe those who serve our Nation's Armed
    Forces. Our hearts and prayers go out to the families, friends, and
    loved ones of those who were killed, both in the United States and in
    Canada.
